Summary: Brilliant!
Comment: Perhaps the best Photoshop book for digital photographers on the market. If you are looking for a book that goes into the technical science of color management or delves in the algorithms behind curves and levels then this isn't it.
What it is is a collection of (brilliant) how to's for digital photo management and correction - what to do when your fill flash was too bright, How to recover an underexposed image. How to turn a snapshot into a poster sized print with mininal loss of detail. The absolute best ways to get maximum sharpness without experiencing color halos and image degradation. How to prepare flesh tones for a CMYK press. Matching color and tone throughout a series of images. Etc.
You can even download the example images in the book, try the techniques out and compare your results to Scott's. If you are a digital photographer who would rather spend more time in the field shooting and less at a computer endlessly tweaking curves and levels and you are looking for a book of down and dirty tips, tricks and how to secrets of the pros then this is it.
Way to go, Scott!

Summary: Save your money if you own the previous version
Comment: The bottom line is: Save your money if you own the previous version of this book. Don't get me wrong, this book is a great book IF you don't own the previous version. If you want an update to CS, then this book does little more than repeat info from the user's manual. Scott does not seem to have any insight into using much of CS's new tools like RAW conversion or the Lens Blur filter. If you want to learn how to use the NEW tools in CS, wait for another book like "Real World Photoshop CS" to come out.

Summary: My Portrait Bible
Comment: It is amazing what you can do with Photoshop and this book, and sooooo easily!!! I was able to take a digital head and shoulders photo of a woman and soften the completion, reduce the size of the nose, brighten the eyes, whiten the teeth, remove the background and replace it with a portrait studio type back drop, fix the hair and all within minutes. I am not expert by any means, but I was able to produce and expert looking portrait. I'm amazed with myself! Thanks Scott, this book is wonderful!
