Photoshop Elements 7: The Missing Manual
£13.88
Photoshop Elements 7 -The missing manual - As has been previously said, this book is rather large - 575 pages including index. Rather bigger than I thought it would be. It covers everything of course, but everything for me is much too much. I can t comprehend that much information. I need something simpler to tell me how Photoshop works in practice with better quality pictures, and when I m an expert The missing manual I might understand.
Good manual let down by quality of pictures - I have upgraded from Elements 4 to Elements 7 so wanted a manual to understand what was new / different. Unfortunately Scott Kelby s book wasn t available in time for Christmas so I bought this instead. It is a fairly weighty tome and seems to cover most subjects well. The main shortcoming for me is the quality of the picture printing. On a number of pictures it is difficult to see the detail, or the difference between the before & after shots, which for a photo editing manual is a major drawback.If you want a decent manual on Elements 7 this is fine, but if like me you want to see in print what to expect on screen I would consider other options as well.
FANTASTIC - Barbara s books about Elements are a necessary and sufficient condition for getting the best out of it. If you need to know it, it s there, and if it s not there, you don t need to know it.
