Short
Courses Publishing Company
BY DENNIS P. CURTAIN
Curtain worked for Prentice-Hall and Little, Brown as an editor
and such before launching off on his own publishing company.
Back then, he had a series of Short Course camera manuals
that sold a million copies. His new series of manuals cover
Nikon, Canon, Olympus digital cameras (sorry, no Sony) in-depth.
Beginner's might try his Short
Course in Using Your Digital Camera e-book, or Choosing
and Using a Digital Camera (2nd Edition). A little pricey,
but his insights are spot on. There's also quite a bit of
free information on his web site.
