About book The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 Book For Digital Photographers (2010)

This is the 6th book by Scott Kelby that I've read and I have enjoyed all of them thoroughly. I consider LR3 to be the one likely to become the most useful to me. The content is well organized and as usual very thorough. I found his style to be both easy-to-read, and, ultimately, easy-to-follow when organizing and editing photos. Truly, this is a fine reference book that will get plenty of use in any photographer's library. Which brings me to the 4 star rating for a book that contains 5 star content. It isn't holding together well. Admittedly, my copy has been getting much use...and I haven't been babying it, but I would have hoped for the pages to be more resistant to tearing and to stay intact within the volume. This is not happening. Be that as it may, I consider the purchase to have been a good one and should my book pass from the scene from heavy use, I would gladly buy another one, particularly if a hard bound one became available. Not likely given 1)planned obsolescence, and 2)Lightroom 4....or maybe even 5 could be out by then. Reference books just aren't as long lived as they use to be, either because of diminishing need or because of diminishing sturdiness. This is an amazing book. This is also the first REFERENCE book for a computer program I read front to back, so while I don't have anything to compare it with, I can easily say it's an amazing book based on my knowledge of photoshop, after effects and Final Cut Pro. Kelby does a wonderful job explaining the many things you can do in lightroom with countless examples. That, and each step is partnered with a screen grab, so you always know what is going on. Lastly, the end of the book summarized the most commonly used tools, which was an added bonus. I know for sure I will be scimming this through again to mark the pages of tools I need to review to learn more about.So in the end - this is a great book. I would not suggest a THING for him to add or explain in a more personal manner. I am very happy I picked this over others, even though it's the only Lightroom book I've read.
