Adobe Photoshop CS4: Up to Speed

Once again Ben Willmore delivers a concise update / analysis of the CS4 upgrade.  As in previous books of this series, he methodically shows you what is new and what has changed.  This efficient approach will speed your integration of the new improvements within your workflow. 

Bottom line, it helps you focus to learn the new improvements you paid your dear money for.

This series along with an occasional “Photoshop Bible” purchase is very useful.  Why pay for a rehash of information that has not changed in the upgrade?  Isn’t it better to focus on what is new?

The Photoshop Channels Book

By Scott Kelby

Published by Peachpit Press.

Frankly, Scott's jokes hamper his ability to deliver material clearly.  He does have great knowledge on the subject, you just need to read around his attempt to be a comedian.

PRINT like a PRO - A digital Photographer's Guide

by Jon Canfield

Peachpit Press

ISBN D-321-38554-3

Printing your own photos can be a very frustrating experience.  It also may your most rewarding.  To turn this into a fun endeavor, you need help from a book like this.  Jon's clear and straightforward approach will get you on the path to make printing one of your favorite sections of your workflow.

If you are seeking information on color management, Jon covers the industry leaders well and helps you choose the product that fits your needs and budget.  I found his description of "ColorVision's Spyder 2" being clear and accurate.

The choice is yours.  Waste time and money on discarded prints, or invest in a book of this nature to save money and improve your results over time.
