Compact, point-and-shoot cameras are convenient, travel-ready, and inexpensive.
They're also more capable.and complex.than ever. In Getting Pro Results from
a Compact Camera, photographer Derrick Story shows how to use a compact camera
to take photos that rival those of far more expensive cameras. Derrick shows how
to get the most out the camera's lens as you shoot wide-angle, telephoto, and
even macro shots. Derrick also discusses the camera's exposure system and
clarifies the differences among ISO settings and scene modes. He also shows how
to get the best pictures in a variety of lighting conditions, including making
judicious use of the flash to supplement existing light.

Topics include:

* Understanding ISO
* Stitching a panorama
* Using exposure lock
* Using the flash indoors and out
* Adapting professional techniques to small cameras
