RE: [Digital BW] ANOTHER Book opinions sought

2002-11-23 by Sam A. McCandless

Martin Evening's Photoshop book seemed very good to me too. But it 
did not seem to me to add as much to "Real World Photoshop 6" as RWPS 
6 added to it. The appropriate edition of RWPS seems to me the best 
first (or only) book. And the book which seems to me to add the most 
to it for photographers is "Professional Photoshop: the Classic Guide 
to Color Correction" by Dan Margulis. His negative opinions of color 
management via profiles have been criticized as destructive, but they 
don't seem to me to have much interfered with his relatively thorough 
and sophisticated discussion of color correction.

I'm just getting around to upgrading to PS7 too; I was waiting for 
both these books to be updated, but I've had them since late summer 
and still haven't installed PS7. Maybe I should wait until "Real 
World Color Management" comes out in February? 8)
