If Adobe continue to release their updates and new versions so fast, you will never publish that book  :)

Oh, it'll get done, but the whole "upgrade cycle" is likely to change in the future...which will make printed books difficult to do if they are version specific.

I use cs5 exclusively, and will for quite a while. Can I get the book now? Can/will individual chapters be purchased online?

Hi Jeff

No plan for a third book called The Digital Camera?  :)

Hello.  I recall Jeff saying quite a while ago that he was not going to write the third book in the series.

Not really, I don't want to get too for into the camera hardware side of things...I think there are plenty of books about digital photography already...but hey, you never know. Now that I'm done with The Digital Print, I've got nothing to do :~)

Then how about following up on some other of Saint Ansel's books. You could do "Digital Natural Light Photography," or perhaps "Digital Polaroid Photography."   ;)

But don't rush; I still have lots to read and reread in the Digital Negative and looking forward to the Digital Print.

I got my author's copies today for The Digital Print...

So, it should hit the streets (at least in the US) in the next week or so...

Fabulous...!!!!

Just got to see how long it takes for Amazon to deliver - my copy has been on backorder for months.

Way cool!   I have my pre-order in at Amazon!   How might one go about getting a signed copy?   :-)

Thanks!

Buy one, then send it to me...I'll autograph it for $1.00!

(you pay round trip shipping)

Great! I have had mine on order since Feb 14th, and I do have Digital Negative and the Ultimate Workshop. Can't wait to see this one.

They're HEEEERE!

Jeff,

I have had my copy on order at Amazon.com since April and they are now predicting delivery Aug 7-9. As usual they are clueless. Why don't you have a book signing at your local bookstore? Many of us in the Chicago area would come and would welcome the opportunity to meet you in person.

Regards,

Bill

Yeah, ya know, I've thought about that...but I figured if I did that there would only be my wife & daughter and a couple of friends and 1 or 2 strangers show up...(it's actually the strangers that scare me :~) Besides, does anybody actually go to book stores anymore? I think there's still a Borders not too far from me but all the other book stores are long gone, sadly...

That is a very sad commentary unfortunately.
"Real books" IMHO are still a very important part of our society but, it seems, they are becoming increasingly devalued.
For the future I am yet to be convinced that digital media give the same impetus to learning how to read, as well as reading to learn, that a good book (read: real in one's hands kind of book) can.
I can still get excited about going to a good bookstore but as Schewe says there just aren't any left anymore.
Borders made a brief appearance in Australia and then went bankrupt, most other independent bookstores have similarly disappeared.
The two franchise chains left are hopeless - I have not even been inside one in the last five years.
Nearly all my book purchases in the last few years have been through Amazon - not by choice - it appears to be the only place that I can find any of the titles that I want.

All I can hope for is that my pessimism regarding the demise of the "real book" and the bookstores that sold them is misplaced.
The education of generations to come and future economic and political stability will be at stake.

Nonetheless, my hope is that individuals like Jeff Schewe continue to write books on all sorts of topics and that their publishers do not give up on print media.
Just as an aside I see no problem with presenting publications in different forms of media, including digital, at all. I just see those options as complimentary to "real books" and not as an absolute replacement.

There is also a Borders not far from my house, but their digital photography for the more advanced photographers is rather skimpy and they charge full price. For your new book the list price is $49.99 and it is available from Amazon.com for $31.98. I would like to support local merchants, but if I know what book I want, it is easier to order it from Amazon rather than going to the store to find out that they don't have it or asking the full list price if they do have it.
