Book Review: Clear, concise, essential...
Summary: 5 Stars
I just picked this book up through Amazon, I'm about 3/4 through it and it's been extremely helpful already. I've read other photoshop books, some I've liked more than others, but this one is tops for me. Scott Kelby's books are helpful, but they are more recipe driven and you don't always gain an understanding of why you are doing something. I've read one by Frasier and for me that was all but useless, since it was unreadable, and I found it difficult to 'find' what I wanted to know in it. Too many circular references. Katrin Eismann's book is different -it is readable, and easy to use as a reference. All her tips for setting up your work space/area/tools in CS2 were helpful, and designed for efficiency. The book is well organized, and the material is presented logically and in an easy to understand way, with good examples and clear goals and solutions presented. There is a web site provided where you can download all the images presented in the book, to work along with. Even if you aren't doing digital 'restoration' work per se, the lessons and examples provided can be applied to a variety of issues and problems to new digital images, straight from your camera, not just to scans of old photographs and slides. Lots of tips and tricks, and Katrin provides solid examples, and easy to follow lessons. More of her lessons will stick with me and I'll incorporate many of them into my workflow (I believe), because they aren't merely recipes, but good explanations of problems and solutions to common flaws in digital images.
