Many photography guide books cover one of two routes: art based or purely functional. Those books leave users overwhelmed with information or an incomplete knowledge base. This book teaches users how to use their camera with explanations of photographic properties and their application in the creative process from start to finish.

This book should be supplemented with active shooting, experimentation, and additional reading. Currently owning a camera is not necessary. The first chapters will help anyone build an understanding of photography. Topics of choosing a camera are also discussed in depth.

Photography is an art and the camera is a tool. Many people say the camera doesn’t matter, it is the photographer that makes the picture. An understanding of how to control a camera is what gives the photographer creative control.
This book is aimed at beginners, artists transitioning to photography, and photographers who want a fun refresher read. After reading this book you will have a broad understanding of photography and be ready to use your digital camera to it's fullest potential.
