Description

Make learning practical and fun. Try out the functions on your camera using this book. This book makes use of the possibilities of your iPad to join theory and practice in a more entertaining way. 

This book is for users who have a digital camera and who have sometimes wondered if having a better camera would help get greater results. I would say so, though I would have to add that learning to use the one they already have will yield even better results.

There are many printed books about photography out there. The possibilities that having this book in the form of an eBook offer makes it interactive and, therefore, easy when explaining them, and of course, when learning them.

This book doesn't assume that you have any experience in photography, just that you want to learn more.
