Review

'Digital Imaging provides a clear and interesting introduction to the technology and its uses… Graham covers the lot…It's a fine reference for anyone dealing with digital imaging, digital camera owners and those who use scanned conventional photographs in documents or Web pages, amateurs or professionals. Digital Imaging shouldn't be far from your desk.'
