Adobe Photoshop CS4 Digital Classroom is like having a personal instructor guiding readers through each lesson, while they work at their own pace. This book includes 13 self-paced lessons that let readers discover essential skills and explore new features and capabilities of Adobe Photoshop. Every lesson is presented in full color with step-by-step instructions. Learning is reinforced with video tutorials and lesson files on a companion DVD that were developed by the same team of Adobe Certified Instructors and Flash experts who have created many of the official training titles for Adobe Systems. Each video tutorial is approximately five minutes long and demonstrates and explains the concepts and features covered in the lesson. Coverage includes information on Adobe Bridge, Camera RAW, masks and layers, painting and retouching, and selections and layers. Jam-packed with information, this book and DVD takes users from the basics through intermediate level topics and helps readers find the information they need in a clear, approachable manner.
Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.
Excellent book for learning how to use the basics of Photoshop CS4. Step by step processes which help to keep the overwhelming new experience manageable. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn to use the program.

My workplace purchased a copy of Photoshop CS 4, and I purchased this book to help me learn it. Nowhere on the covers did it specify that there are two versions of Photoshop CS4, and that this book had material that was only applicable to the more expensive piece of software. It got very confusing when the author treated the software as if everyone had a single version.
So for those of us who don’t have the 3d tools nor the video editing capabilities, 3 out of the 14 chapters will not be very useful, because you won’t be able to complete them. That makes a 20% loss just from the authors not being up front about what they are teaching. They should have called the book “Adobe Photoshop CS4 Enhanced Edition Digital Classroom.”
The rest of the book is well written, and presents the material clearly and concisely.

This series of training books provided my team with the up to date training necessary to stay competitive. With quick access to the new features in CS4 we were able to get up to speed quickly and efficiently! I would recommend this series to anyone getting into Adobe’s Creative Suite, or professionals that need a brush up of their skills.

I read reviews on this book (and reviews of other books teaching CS4) and I also checked it out at the library before buying. The book is well worth the cost and a must have for any photoshop user.
