Drawing on decades of experience as an internationally acclaimed photographer, author Michael Freeman presents a comprehensive tome on digital photography that takes the reader from initial inspiration, all the way to digital processing and printing. Inside the lavish aluminium photographers case are five new volumes, a handy wallet-sized shooting guide plus a DVD featuring masterclasses from the author himself. 'The Art of Digital Photography' showcases Freemans finest work, and explains how composition, exposure, colour and tone are all crucial for a photograph with impact. 'The Digital Camera Handbook' explores the machinations of digital cameras, outlining the key technologies that photographers need if they want to get great results from their digital SLR, and how to employ them to best effect in real world situations. 'Digital Photography Workflow' is a guide to the all-important areas of image management; from shooting and processing Raw files, through to outputting your images online or in print. 'Creative Image Editing and Special Effects' an essential guide to the digital darkroom features practical and inspirational projects, and is packed with hints and tips. 'Pocket Guide to Shooting' is the perfect companion for the photographer on the move, acting as both a source of inspiration and an aide memoire for key camera settings. 'The Shooting Tips Wallet Guide' is a carry-anywhere, quick-reference for those all important shooting settings. The Digital Imaging DVD contains video masterclasses and on-location, behind-the-scenes footage of the author.

A comprehensive and practical analysis and overview of the imaging chain through acquisition, processing and display The Handbook of Digital Imaging provides a coherent overview of the imaging science amalgam, focusing on the capture, storage and display of images. The volumes are arranged thematically to provide a seamless analysis of the imaging chain from source (image acquisition) to destination (image print/display). The coverage is planned to have a very practical orientation to provide a comprehensive source of information for practicing engineers designing and developing modern digital imaging systems. The content will be drawn from all aspects of digital imaging including optics, sensors, quality, control, colour encoding and decoding, compression, projection and display. Contains approximately 50 highly illustrated articles printed in full colour throughout Over 50 Contributors from Europe, US and Asia from academia and industry The 3 volumes are organized thematically for enhanced usability: Volume 1: Image Capture and Storage; Volume 2: Image Display and Reproduction, Hardcopy Technology, Halftoning and Physical Evaluation, Models for Halftone Reproduction; Volume 3: Imaging System Applications, Media Imaging, Remote Imaging, Medical and Forensic Imaging 3 Volumes www.handbookofdigitalimaging.com

This book provides an overview of advanced digital image and signal processing techniques that are currently being applied in the realm of measurement systems. The book is a selection of extended versions of the best papers presented at the Sixth IEEE International Workshop on Intelligent Data Acquisition and Advanced Computing Systems: Technology and Applications IDAACS 2011 related to this topic and encompass applications that go from multidimensional imaging to evoked potential detection in brain computer interfaces. The objective was to provide a broad spectrum of measurement applications so that the different techniques and approaches could be presented.Digital Image and Signal Processing for Measurement Systems concentrates on signal processing for measurement systems and its objective is to provide a general overview of the area and an appropriate introduction to the topics considered. This is achieved through 10 chapters devoted to current topics of research addressed by different research groups within this area. These 10 chapters reflect advances corresponding to signals of different dimensionality. They go from mostly one dimensional signals in what would be the most traditional area of signal processing realm to RGB signals and to signals of very high dimensionality such as hyperspectral signals that can go up to dimensionalities of more than one thousand. The chapters have been thought out to provide an easy to follow introduction to the topics that are addressed, including the most relevant references, so that anyone interested in this field can get started in the area. They provide an overview of some of the problems in the area of signal and image processing for measurement systems and the approaches and techniques that relevant research groups within this area are employing to try to solve them which, in many instances are the state of the art of some of these topics.
