Looking for a perfect gift for the aspiring iPhoneographer? Course Technology has just published the first book for iPhone photographers, Killer Photos with Your iPhone by photographers Matthew Bamberg, Kris Krug, and Greg Ketchum. Written from the perspective of a photographer, this is a great book for beginning and intermediate iPhoneographers and even more seasoned iPhoneographers will find items of interest here.
A full LoFi review is forthcoming, but one of the things that I really like about the book is that it emphasizes photographic theory and technique instead of just apping up photos. While there are chapters devoted to apps, the main focus of the book is shooting a good photo to begin with.
The book is written with the iPhone 3G and 3GS in mind, but the photographic theory presented is applicable to all iPhones. The book lists for $24.99 USD, but is available now on Amazon.com for only $16.49.
