[03/16/07] It was a little difficult to get here in Germany, but it was worth all the strain! I read all night and can't stop untill I finished it completely. And when I did so, I started all over... |

[01/25/07] Excellent book, I have had my copy for about 4 months. I read it cover to cover in about 2 days and have refered back to it quite often. It will not teach you everything there is to know about Sports Photography, but it will give you an good foundation to build on. |

[03/26/06] This is a great book and a must have for anyone interested in shooting sports. It has a huge wealth of info for any beginner and some great tips for the veteran shooter. The section on how he started out and worked his way up is very encouraging having had some of the same experiences myself. |

[01/16/06] Great easy to read book that every beginning sports photographer should consider a must read. Seasoned photographers will find it a good read just to see how another pro does it. And who knows you may find a pointer or two also. |

[01/03/06] I was searching for such a book like this and telling a friend while we were at a bookstore a month ago. He reached over and said "you mean a book like this one?" I think the book is very well laid out and a great resource. You can read it cover to cover without putting it down. |

[12/15/05] Great book that has real tips on shooting sports, and selecting the BEST shots. The "digital" term is not needed, and it's not half the book dedicated describing what and SLR is and what type of memory card you need. I wish it had a section on Auto Racing, but entire books are donated to that. |

[12/12/05] I am fortunate to have free access to the electronic version of this book through our library. The sport by sport analysis of how each sport ought to be shot are fantastic, especially with sports I haven't had the chance to shoot; it gives me an insight of what is expected and what can be done to achieve those results if I am to shoot them sometime down the line. A great book and I highly recommend it. |
