Major companies like Kodak and Nikon are abandoning the manufactureof film cameras and are producing affordable digitals, so it's anideal time for substantial manuals on their use to appear. Aalandwas among the first to write such books when his DigitalPhotography was published in 1992. In this second edition ofShooting Digital, he has removed material that is no longerrelevant (e.g., shutter-release lag) and added chapters on shootingand processing RAW data and on the digital renaissance in shootingin black and white. Highly recommended. (Library Journal,March 15, 2007)"Renowned author Aaland takes photographers through an enjoyablebut fluidly intellectual guide for self-improvement." (DigitalPhotographer)
