Some books are different – they make you understand concepts through experiences, rather than theory. This book is one of them, although the first chapter is a little dry. Read through the first chapter, and you won’t want to keep the book down thereafter. Although the book is written from a professional photographer’s point of view, it has tons of ideas and “organization tips” for every person who uses a digital camera and wants to better arrange their collection.
And yes, the book is certainly specific to Adobe Bridge, and IView Media Pro. Also, the author does assume that everyone uses Apple OS X, but only 5% of the book is specific to users of these programs and OS. Even if you don’t use these applications, you’ll benefit from the book. You’ll learn how to develop your photo-rating system. Peter Krogh even attempts to make the entire system future-proof with a look at how many photographs you might have 10 years from today. He discusses Adobe’s DNG format in detail and provides significant info about metadata. All put together, this is “the book” to buy if you are even remotely interested in DAM.
