User Reviews about Digital Photography For Seniors For Dummies
From assistance in choosing the right digital camera to posting edited photographs online to share with family and friends, this book has it all. The first few chapters methodically explain the different buttons and menus. By using Windows Live Photo Gallery to take users through the various tools for editing and organizing photos, the author avoided what might otherwise have been simply a cursory review of several different programs rather than a useful "how-to." Similarly, the author uses Flickr to give a practicum how to post photos online. The section dealing with digital picture frames was especially helpful. I was particularly impressed with the sections that offer guidelines and suggestions for taking better photographs. -- Great Book for Seniors (and Everybody Else, Too)
Hinton has done a fantastic job of answering all those questions I had abaout digital photography, cameras,and editing info. He completely reviews the downloadable software program WINDOWS LIVE PHOTO GALLERY. So many programs are expensive and complicated, but this has given me new hope. I feel, that with this book, I am able to tackle anything related to my digital camera or my software program. Very helpful information and photos to show exactly what he is talking about. You can't go wrong with this book. Great for beginners or any of us who were afraid to tackle some of these issues. I get excited now about trying new things with my camera. You can't go wrong with this book and it is generic enough that it doesn't matter what camera you have. I just purchased and new "bridge" camera and find this book very helpful. Buy it!!! -- Best Book Yet
I was skeptical about the concept of Dummies books specifically for seniors. But Wiley delivers with this book. It's fun and good-looking with many full-color photos and illustrations. The book is very clearly written and contains lots of practical tips, as well as step-by-step instructions. The book does not patronize its audience either; it just provides lots of useful information. Plus the book sports a 14-point font, nice and large for those of us in the reading glasses phase of our lives. Kudos to Hinton and his publisher! -- Senior Photography Book Delivers
