| | | Are you ready for a Photoshop book that breaks all the rules? Updated for Adobe Photoshop CS4, this top-selling book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that's rare--it cuts through the bull and shows readers exactly "how to do it." It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge readers to come up with their own settings or figure it out on their own. Instead, it shows them, step by step, the exact techniques used by today's cutting-edge digital photographers and retouchers, and it does something that virtually no other Photoshop book has ever done--it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. Including coverage of all the newest features of CS4--such as nondestructive corrections with the Adjustments panel, the new Vibrance adjustment layer, better Dodge and Burn tools, and enhanced Auto-Align and Auto-Blend panoramic features--The Photoshop CS4 Book for Digital Photographers is full-color, graphically rich, and contains project-based examples of every key step in the digital photography process. Integrating all the newest features of Photoshop CS4 into the book's workflow, Scott shows readers how to work with their images like a pro, from importing and organization to correction and output. Readers will learn all they need to know to create stellar images using Photoshop CS4.

5 of 5 Excellent Easy To Read Reference Thursday, April 02, 2009 Lourai from Roswell, Georgia
This book was referred to me in Photoshop class I took with my camera club. The instructor said Scott's books are well organized and make a good reference. I also read some reviews of this book and they were all positive, so I gave it a try and I am not disappointed. The book is an excellent reference and sits right next to me whenever I use Photoshop. Before buying the book I considered myself a novice Photoshop user. This book has helped me reach the next level. It is well laid out, has excellent color graphics and you can either read it as a text book or simply use it as a reference. Either way, I would highly recommend it. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Kelby hits another home-run!!!! Monday, March 16, 2009 Big Don from Woodbridge, Virginia
Scott Kelby has hit another home-run with his new book about CS-4! As with all of Scott’s works the wit and humor make it an easy read and the content does not dance around the functions. I have always liked Scott’s straight, do this then do that style! I can scan one of his books and not get bored with the theory of a function. He gets right to the point with minimum words! Each function that he details is a no BS, step by step, how to explanation. Straight to the point, and very easy to use. Was this review helpful?
