Reviews
THE BOOK IS GREAT , LOTS OF INFO.......THE ONLY THING THEY COULD HAVE DONE BETTER IS MORE PICTURES. WHO KNOWS WHAT POST FOCUS IS?? WITH OUT PICTURES YOU HAVE TO EXPERIMENT, GOOGLE IT, HOPEFULLY GET SOME PICS FOR EXAMPLES ETC...THE ORIGINAL SHOWS VERY LITTLE. FOR SOMEONE WHO KNOWS....FINE.......FOR THOSE OF US WHO NEVER HEARD OF IT???? OR IMAGE STACKING IT ANOTHER ONE........SOUNDS SIMPLE BUT NOT EVERYONE BUYING THIS BOOK IS A PRO PHOTOGRAPHER.......I NEVER HEARD OF IMAGE OR FOCUS STACKING AND HAD A NIKON D5500....SO MORE PICS WOULD SURE HELP THE BOOK. ALL IN ALL ITS MORE INFO THAN THE MANUAL GIVES YOU....BUY IT , LIKE I DID...
