Book Reviews of Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III Digital Field Guide

Book Review: Finally, a camera guide written for artists!
Summary: 5 Stars

Ok, I confess up front. I am not a camera geek, I am a photographic artist. So reading the manual on the Canon 1 series camera is something for late nights when I am trying to put myself to sleep. I'm never going to remember all that stuff anyway or ever figure out how those engineers have the manual put together. Honestly, I really DO NOT CARE why or what is behind those mysterious custom function screens. I care only about making beautiful photographic images, the simplest most strait forward way possible. Finally, here is a book that makes use of deep in-the-field actual experience to share what really works, and what doesn't. There is plenty of technical information between the covers, but only where necessary. This is a Photographer's guide, not just another rehashed technical manual. I was impressed with the range of topics covered also, everything from choosing a lighting setup to specific suggestions for the type of lenses to use for a particular subject. Brilliant. Insight from a working professional photographer is always more valuable to me than reading droll engineering speak. There's a fantastic chapter on lighting that reveals the process photographers and DPs go through when scouting a location and deciding how they're going to light. That's the kind of info it normally takes years to acquire, and at a far higher cost than this book! Much of this stuff I would not have even known existed, let alone the importance of it. Stiching images, HDR techniques, RAW processor comparisons- it's all there.

A wonderful overview of the current state of high end photography particularly when using a 1DsIII. What more could you ask for?
