Digital Imaging
Basics, Workflow,
and Calibration
Every journey begins with the first step.
Unfortunately, for many, the temptation to
skip the first step is enhanced by the belief
that they already know how to take pictures.
After all, we’ve been snapping photos since
we were kids, haven’t we? Modern cameras
do everything automatically, don’t they?
For consistent success, you need to predict
the outcome of the image capture with
certainty—and for professional results,
you can’t rely on the display on the back
of the camera. Before you begin, you need
to learn how digital photography works
and develop an image capture workflow;
then you need to test and calibrate your
equipment. Only then can you take the first
tentative steps to digital photo mastery.
