Riassunto

This is a complete introduction to digital imaging for photographers that will also appeal to photo-illustrators and graphic arts professionals. It introduces the technologies involved in a non-scientific way - showing how digital processes can be used alongside traditional techniques.

From image capture through to manipulation and output, the book takes you step by step through the processes involved in digital imaging. Everything you need to know is here: from the necessary hardware and software involved, an overview of digital cameras on offer, film scanners, storing and compressing files, the "digital darkroom" - image processing with examples from Adobe Photoshop, colour management techniques, output issues, transmitting images over the web and a whole lot more! A section on ethics and copyright issues associated with digital imaging is also included.

Adrian Davies is Senior Lecturer in Digital Imaging at the North East Surrey College of Technology. He is consultant on the subject, writes regularly for magazines and speaks at conference/exhibitions and roadshows organised by manufacturers.

Phil Fennessy is Digital Capture Development Manager at Kodak.

Recensione

"A book that delivers what it sets out to do - to introduce photographers to all aspects of electronic imaging technology. The CD-ROM contains a range of well-documented high quality images, provided copyright free - anyone thinking of a shopping list or wondering how good these cameras are, is going to be very happy to see such a range. The CD alone is excellent value."
Journal of Electronic Imaging.

"Whether you're just getting into digital imaging or a relatively old hand, this book is highly recommended."
Professional Photographer.

"....aimed squarely at cutting through the jargon and explaining how it all works in a way that a computer rookie can understand ... While mainly aimed at imaging novices, this book will fill in the knowledge gaps of many who are using imaging on a regular basis. I can strongly recommend it to anyone with an interest in the subject, whether beginner or accomplished user."
Electronic Imaging Magazine.

"All in all, this is an excellent intermediate level text for those wanting to master the technical complexities of digital imaging in its many manifestations."
