Customer Reviews

it's for the pros.

the book excellently discusses PS 4 from a pro's perspective. it delves on photography. however, i was disappointed when i saw tht it barely touched on effects. photos and color and all that, yes. hi-tech stuff, no.

Excellent book for photographers who want to learn Photoshop

This book teaches photographers which of Photoshops many features are most useful for their specific photographic needs. The lessons are clear and concise, and a CD is included which has all the files the authors created and use in the text.If you know Ansel Adams' Zone System you'll feel comfortable here since they use this as a framework in some of the lessons.After working through the entire book I feel my knowledge of Photoshop has increased several fold.

A Must For Photographers

There are a lot of Photoshop books out there, but few are oriented toward the serious photographer who uses this program. P4A is written especially for photographers, and it is a good tutorial book. Highly recommended.

One of the best reference and tutorial books I've found!

As a tech editor for New Riders Press, I receive many computer books to use as reference for my assignments. I thought _Photoshop 4 Artistry_ was by far the best of all the Photoshop books I reviewed, and I am now using it as the required text for an advanced digital imaging class that I teach at Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto, Canada.
