Summary: Good - but not for the inexperienced
Comment: When I bought this book it was as an aid to my understanding of the use of Photoshop in conjunction with digital cameras. To a large extent it succeeded and I learnt a great deal from it.
Potential purchasers should, however, understand that the book appears to be targeted rather more at the professional photographer than the amateur with moderate cost equipment. The chapter on colour management is, for example, good, but deals mostly with high end devices and does not really help those who print to standard colour inkjet printers.
The author also has an annoying habit of assuming that the reader is already familiar with much of Photoshop and, worse, that they have already read the previous version of his book!
If you are a beginner to either Photoshop or digital photography this book is not for you, but if you already have some experience then you will probably find it very useful and if you are a professional photographer then it will probably be invaluable.

Summary: Digital Photographer's Photoshop Reference
Comment: Photoshop 6 for Photographers is a must if you do any digital imaging. Evening's writing style is fresh and easy to read. The book is, as the title suggests, directed to photographers both film and digital. Weather you are a Photoshop newcomer or an experienced user, Photoshop 6 for Photographers has something for you. The introductory chapters are, for the digital novice, invaluable. Chapters 4 and 5 (Color management and File output and proofing) alone are worth the price of admission. Both contain comprehensive, well written, and easy to understand information that every digital photographer should know. Photoshop 6 for Photographers is a book that you will keep next to your computer, not on a bookshelf out of sight. I highly recommend Photoshop 6 for Photographers if you care about your digital photos.

Summary: Okay, but Kelby's new book is better
Comment: This book is pretty good, but lacking in good examples in my opinion. The techniques are fine but I thought the examples and the instructions given in Scott Kelby's book are better.
I had to choose, I think I'd buy Kelby's digital photogrpahy book (plus it's for Photoshop 7 and includes info on the new Camera Raw plugin)
