Review: Great Book for Understanding Digital Cameras Better! - I've done film photography since the 1970s and know a lot about the photographic principles and processes. In the digital era, I got lazy and had never really learned how to translate my pre-digital photo knowledge into setting up and using digital cameras effectively. I mostly stuck to Auto, I'm sad to say. Camera manuals are pathetic, so what I really wanted was to learn exactly how digital cameras do what they do, and learn to use my digital cameras' settings more creatively than you can do on automatic. As one example, Gatcum explains beautifully the differences between all the possible settings such as Auto vs. Program, and what the benefits and limitations are for each one. This is one example of a topic the limited and badly translated camera manuals are silent on. This book assumes limited photographic knowledge so it would be fine for photo newbies, but it's actually extremely well laid out with brief but useful explanations and really great illustrative photos that anyone could learn and benefit from. I got a lot of good ideas from the various subjects the book. Another good point is that the topics and descriptions are clear, precise, but not too wordy. Just enough to illustrate the subject well both in description and with visuals. I have recently bought several similar books and this one is my favorite and I learned what I wanted to learn. Very useful for those in my situation as well as for total beginners, and highly recommended. Review: Photography for beginners and not only. - Big fan of DK editions. This one shines, as always. Excellent work. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #982,889 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #8 in Photography Equipment (Books) #13 in Photography Reference (Books) #2,201 in Reference (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 4,899 Reviews | ## Images ![The Beginner's Photography Guide: The Ultimate Step-by-Step Manual for Getting the Most from Your Digital Camera - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81am-XbLWoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book for Understanding Digital Cameras Better! *by C***M on November 7, 2017* I've done film photography since the 1970s and know a lot about the photographic principles and processes.

This one shines, as always. Excellent work. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book, but really basic *by C***O on May 2, 2019* The title does not lie...It is really a beginner's guide. Guess I was hoping for some more advanced tips, but this is my own fault. The guide is good and will walk you through how to use different settings to achieve different effects. If you are buying a camera that is beyond the point and shoot variety this book will help you a lot. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Beginner's Photography Guide: The Ultimate Step-by-Step Manual for Getting the Most from Your Digital Camera - Digital Photography Complete Course: Learn Everything You Need to Know in 20 Weeks (DK Complete Courses) - National Geographic Photo Basics: The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Great Photography --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/32217173-the-beginners-photography-guide-the-ultimate-step-by-step-manual](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/32217173-the-beginners-photography-guide-the-ultimate-step-by-step-manual) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
