Not What I Expected March 6, 2008
J. Kelly (Connecticut - United States)
4 out of 9 found this review helpful
I purchased this book on recommendation from a teacher of a point-and-shoot digital camera class. Imagine my surprise, on receiving the book, to find that it is in reality an advanced color correction manual for Adobe Photoshop CS2.
This book would be invaluable if I intended to invest in that program. Since I do not, it was a big waste of money.
I don't feel the description here completely covered the fact that the book is practically useless if you don't own Photoshop. If you do, fine, you'll love it. If, like me, you don't, then continue browsing and pass it by.
