Book Reviews of iPhoto 2 for Mac OS X (Visual QuickStart Guide)

Book Review: Excellent for novice and expert alike.
Summary: 5 Stars

I was surprised by how good this book is. I browsed it an Apple store and paid [item price] for it there. I think of myself as almost an iPhoto expert, I read the many online sources, I read the manual, I know a lot of the weird shortcuts, etc. etc.

Even so, I learned a lot from a few minutes with this book. The advice on ordering photo books is alone worth the cost of the book. I can't judge how readable it is for a novice, but it's very clearly written and the pictures are excellent. I think it would work well for a novice too.

The author uses photos of his son Tristan throughout the book. Hopefully by the time Tristan is a teenager he will not have access to this book.

Really, a super book. There's no Apple provided iPhoto manual and the online help file is somewhat feeble. Buy this book.

Summary of iPhoto 2 for Mac OS X (Visual QuickStart Guide)

If you've been using Apple's iPhoto software to organize and share your digital photos, you're about to start using it a whole lot more: That's because with version 2, iPhoto has grown even more powerful thanks to its integration with Apple's iLife suite of products. With iPhoto 2 for Mac OS X: Visual QuickStart Guide, you'll quickly discover how you can share digital images with iMovie, create DVD-based slideshows with iDVD, archive photos instantly (to CD or DVD), create coffee-table books combining text and photos, and email your best shots to friends and relatives.

Task-based instruction, a strong visual format, and no-nonsense guidance from trusted Mac author and pundit Adam Engst make this book the perfect place to master iPhoto. If you're new to iPhoto, you'll find everything you need to start importing, organizing, editing, and sharing your photos. And if you're an old hand, you'll easily zero in on the features that excite you most: the Enhance and Retouch tools, new printing templates, expanded email support, and more. A slew of tips, screen shots-galore, and a companion Web site round out the Visual QuickStart package.
