O''Reilly publishes ''iPhoto: The Missing Manual''
By ron carlson, Insanely Great Mac
July 17th 2002
The book ''that should have been in the box'' is now available
iPhoto, Apple''s wildly popular application for organizing, retrieving, and sharing
digital images, has finally given people who own digital cameras something to do with
all the pictures they take. "Until now, you almost needed a degree in computer science
to process your digital photos," says David Pogue, coauthor, with Joseph Schorr and
Derrick Story, of iPhoto: The Missing Manual (Pogue Press/O''Reilly, US $24.95).
"Sure, you could take the pictures easily enough, but then what? The entire process
was so complicated that the old-fashioned way of shooting prints and stuffing them in
a shoe box didn''t seem so bad." With Pogue''s latest book, iPhoto users can quickly
learn how to take their digital photos to the screen, to the Web, to printouts, to
hardbound photo books, even to DVDs.
iPhoto: The Missing Manual takes readers far beyond iPhoto''s seemingly simple feature
list. And the software application is just the beginning. The book also covers
choosing and mastering a digital camera, the basics of good photocomposition, and tips
for shooting special subjects like kids, sports, nighttime shots, portraits, and more.
"iPhoto has done for digital photography what the microwave did to cooking," Pogue
proclaims. "And iPhoto: The Missing Manual gives you everything you need to know, from
selecting the right camera to publishing the images on the Web."
The latest in the series of bestselling Missing Manual titles created by prolific
writer/publisher Pogue in collaboration with O''Reilly & Associates, iPhoto: The
Missing Manual is "the book that should have been in the box," and more. It''s the
essential guide for any Mac user who wants to master digital photography.
iPhoto: The Missing Manual and other O''Reilly titles are on display at the company''s
booth (#356) at Macworld New York.
Analysis: It''s good that Apple is a profit center for other companies. It''s rather
pathetic that no one ships manuals anymore. But, alas, this trend is already standard
practice.
