This is the best quick-reference, inexpensive digital guide yet. Whether one is confused by selective focus, night photography, or action shots, Kim provides a clear, detailed explanation. White balance, for example, is a new digital lighting factor that few amateurs understand. Kim describes how different light sources (tungsten, fluorescent, natural) affect the appearance of white and how to adjust for each. His illustrations leave no doubt that it's valuable to understand the advanced features as well as the basic techniques of digital cameras. Packed with useful and encouraging advice, this small-format volume is ideal for taking on one's travels or for browsing before picking up the camera.
