Learn how to take professional-quality photographs using the same tricks today’s top photographers use (surprisingly, it’s easier than you’d think)!
This is a completely, totally updated version of the #1 best-selling digital photography book of all time! It’s the award winning, worldwide smash hit, written by Scott Kelby, that’s been translated into dozens of different languages.
Here’s how Scott describes this book’s brilliant premise: “If you and I were out on a shoot, and you asked me, ‘Hey, how do I get this flower to be in focus, with the background out of focus?,’ I wouldn’t stand there and give you a photography lecture. In real life, I’d just say, ‘Put on your zoom lens, set your f-stop to f/2.8, focus on the flower, and fire away.’ That’s what this book is all about: you and I out shooting where I answer questions, give you advice, and share the secrets I’ve learned just like I would with a friend―without all the technical explanations and techie photo speak.”
This isn’t a book of theory―full of confusing jargon and detailed concepts. This is a book on which button to push, which setting to use, and when to use it. With over 200 of the most closely guarded photographic “tricks of the trade,” this book gets you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful, more professional-looking photos every time.
Each page covers a single concept that makes your photography better. Every time you turn the page, you’ll learn another pro setting, tool, or trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery prints. If you’re tired of taking shots that look “okay,” and if you’re tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, “Why don’t my shots look like that?” then this is the book for you.

Easy to read

Scott Kelby is the man!
This is my quick reference book for anything photography. There are other books that cover in more detail about topics all which are great but I like the short lessons in this book. Fair warning, Scott likes to tell really bad jokes (goofy) I myself enjoy his humor but I have friends that donât care for it. Scott has helped me with taking better pictures and his teaching is so simple and relatable to me. I canât think him enough.
Rick Naramore –
great book – super practical
Highly recommend. Good to see how an expert handles shots that often times try to figure out ourselves, and often screw up.
Kris Thooft –
should have purchased years ago!
Funny, filled with nerdy practicality and wisdom that I could have used about 35 sessions ago! Scottâs writing makes you feel like heâs standing right next to you and genuinely interested in your success and having a good time.

Being a fan of Kelby and in possession of many of his books, my expectation was high. In his inimitable style, The Digital Photography Book, covers every aspect of digital photography, profusely illustrated with concise informative instructions showing you how to take professional-quality pictures.
