 Kudos for Kubota Apr 15, 2009
By Timothy Millea
"Photography Rulez"
I'm quite impressed with this title it's not at all what I imagined. Not a book on posing or photographic technique, but rather a step by step fun to read technical travel through digital workflows. From capture to print Kevin Kubota shows us the ins and outs of Adobe's Lightroom and Photoshop CS3. Detailed step by step instructions will guide beginners along at their own pace, yet there are plenty of tricks a seasoned pro could pick up along the way. Though the book deals mainly with wedding/portraiture and the examples are of such, almost all the information can be applied to all types of photography. The example photos appear to be of actual weddings and not staged eye candy model shots. A real plus for us real world photographers.
A definite must have for those starting out with digital workflows and a welcome addition to the pro's library too. I know I'll be reading further and digesting the contents. This is a keeper for my library.

Why you need to buy this book Jan 27, 2009
By Joy Bianchi Brown
"Joy Bianchi Brown"
If you are looking for a step by step book that will walk you through the basics of digital photography and workflow, look no further. Kevin takes the often overwhelming programs of post-processing such as Photoshop and Lightroom and breaks them down into manageable, easy-to-swallow steps, and somehow even makes it fun! I also love all the big pictures and descriptions, for us visual people! :) '

Great overview Dec 26, 2008
By Dawn Johns
"DAWN"
This book gives a great overview of the workings of the digital studio. Basic enough for beginners yet detailed enough for the seasoned photographer, anyone can benefit from the information provided. Among the areas featured include equipment, software programs, managing workflow, and the final product. As a bonus, Kevin Kubota has a way with words that is sure to put a smile on your face as you learn. I would surely recommend this book.

Good book on digital workflow May 20, 2009
By D. Waiters
Let me first say really don't prejudge. I have to admit I had avoided reading Kevin's book in the past thinking it was like some other techno talk without substance. I WAS WRONG. This is a great book, and it is great for those just starting out or to go back over to make sure you know and understand the WHY behind the digital work flow. Here is the great part, if you have to explain digital to someone and they are not getting it. Just have them get this book and take a evening and start reading it.
His Raw vs Jpeg section, or what is monitor calibration. I wish I could get him to take a couple of paragraphs and them as excerpts (like from a novel) for others to read to get them on the right digital road. I am Kubota.

Kevin IS a FIVE-STAR in himself Oct 01, 2010
By PhotoAnges
"Max Sirio"
I'm a professional wedding photographer based in Nice, France. I bought his book after having used Kevin's filters and tools hundreds of times. This book is thin, but it's worth its weight in gold, at least for me. Kevin's like his filters: straight to the point. Not much chit-chat like some well-known best sellers writers. Each chapter brings you a leap forward; each paragraph gives you the magic boots that fly.
If you read through the index you may claim that an experienced photographer should know everything written there and more. But, hey, sometimes a small thing makes a great difference, and this book has taught me many little things.....
Thanks, Kevin, from my heart. Max
