Digital imaging is no longer the province of the enthusiast or dedicated amateur. By end 2004, according to market estimates, the installed base of digital cameras worldwide reached over 200 million.

But they may well be bitten by the nature of the medium and wish to go a little further. Complete Digital Photography aims to inspire such readers and to provide hints and encouragement, without going into too much off-putting detail.
