I love photography and I have already taken a intro/basics digital photography seminar and I kind of want to go to the next level but in the city I lived there is nothing… so I thought that an online seminar could be a nice choice and advise …..
I have heard very good things about this photography class. I know that the person who runs it (James) is an excellent photographer and you will certainly learn a lot from him.

I’m looking for a really good Digital Photography book that covers everything to do with taking good digital photo’s.

In the past I have read other books by John Hedgecoe and Tom Ang. Both have digital books too but I havent seen or read them – I need someone to recommend me a really good, a comprehensive one that covers everything. Great for a beginner etc…

Thanks!
"The Digital Photography Book" by Scott Kelby. It will address what you are looking for in a very readable way. He covers a lot of shooting situations and important camera controls.

I also agree with the poster who suggested "Understanding Exposure" It is also easy to read and has great photos. This book doesn’t get into all the nooks and crannies (ie, histograms, spot meters, and such) but it has helped me a lot with developing a better, well a better understanding of exposure.

One last thing. I don’t mean this as an insult, more from personal experience, get out that camera manual and learn about all the controls.

The first time you took digital photography, how did you learn and what things did you do to be a great photographer? I’m a beginner and I’ve been reading stuff and trying but is that enough? I would want to join groups but I get shy and intimidated by great photographers.
My experience with film for 40 years before picking up a digital camera sure helped. You can find a lot of info on-line or in books. Here’s my standard answer on that:

I can easily recommend this book as an excellent source for a beginner. "Get the Most from Your Digital Camera," by Simon Joinson.

I am sure that it is not "everything" Simon knows about photography, but it is sure to help you get started.
