Good for everyone

	Time-Lapse Photography: A Complete Introduction I really can’t believe that this book is so cheap, it is 100% worth every single penny. I enjoyed this book a lot, it covers everything important for making great Time Lapse video. From framing, setup, gear, avoiding flickering, post processing and much more.   Read my review here. (May 2012)
	The Photographer’s Eye This book assess each component of a picture, one at the time and explain its impact on the overall picture. Would it be framing, aspect ratio, color contrast, etc. This book will stimulate your creativity. It can be technical, and even esoteric at some time, but it is always good.   Read my review here.
	The Photographer’s Mind Need to boost up your creativity? This is the book you need! The author explains how to train your brain to recognize creative opportunity and how aim for beauty, what ever the subject is.   Read my review here.

DSLR Cinema This book covers pretty much everything you need to know to shoot movies with your HDSLR. My biggest recommendation for anyone who is starting out.   Read my review here.

From Still to Motion This book is similar to DSLR Cinema in its topic but it is more targeted toward photographers moving to video (as the title implies).   Read my review here.

Photographers only

Rabari – Encounters With the Nomadic Tribe This e-book is good for adventures people, travelers that want to see how to take photos in limited conditions with less equipment possible. Read review (Feb 2012).

Understanding Shutter Speed Ever shot in Tv mode? Probably not. Most people focus on the Av mode and shutter speed is only seen as a way to offset the  available light. This book shows you how to use the shutter speed as a creative tool.

Understanding Exposure This book is a classic and must read for anyone who wants to shoot in M mode. While all of its key principles work for both video and stills, I placed it in the photographer section because it does not cover the exposure limitations when shooting video.

Portrait Photography Portrait photography is more than shooting with the lens wide open or playing in the Strobist team. While the content may be already known to most experienced photographers, for the others it is like gold. A must have for anyone who just purchase his first camera.

Transcending Travel – A guide to Captivating Travel Photography At heart, I am a travel photographer. It is natural for me to get good pictures when I am visiting another country. I always found it easy to do so but looking at some of my friends travel pictures, I understood that not everyone is good at it. That is where this book comes in. It is simple and will improve your travel photography by a few factors.

Photo nuts and bolts This book is good for anyone who wants to know how camera works and what the various function do. It will not teach you how to take good picture but will teach you how the various parts of the camera interact to create the picture.

Photo nuts and shots This is the complementary book to Photo nuts and bolts. Targeted at photography novice, it will teach you the basis required to take well composed and interesting pictures.   Read my review here.
