Jenni Bidner does an excellent job of explaining the features of the Advanced Photo System. The book is much more than an introduction to APS photography; as it covers composition, photo techniques, and tips for taking great pictures. If you are a user of an APS camera, or plan to purchase one, you should read this book.
