OC Photographer Launches New Book To Help Baby Boomers Navigate the Digital World

Tustin, CA (PRWEB) August 8, 2008 -- According to a recent Simmons Market Research Study, the nation's 78 million baby boomers are being overwhelmed by an avalanche of increasingly intimidating high-tech gadgets. And, with more and more of them becoming empty-nesters as they age, the youngest of whom turned 44 this year, they can no longer rely on their tech-savvy Gen X or Y children for help.

Enter "Digital Diva" and acclaimed Orange County photographer Julie Diebolt Price and her new e-book, Babyboomers' Guide to Digital Photography, $24.95 plus tax and shipping, (www.babyboomersdigitalphoto.com).

"This book is for those who are confused by all the 'stuff' you have to know just to take pictures with a digital camera today," says Diebolt Price. "It is your opportunity to finally learn, and remember, all you need to know about digital photography."

The Babyboomer's Guide to Digital Photography is a concise (only eight chapters), easy-to-use aid whose sole purpose is to help you take better pictures quickly by cutting through all the technical jargon you find in many other photography books.

You'll learn:

?    How to choose the camera that's right for you.

?    The first thing to do when you take your camera out of the box.

?    Simple techniques to deal with shutter lag.

?    How to take pictures like a pro.

?    How and when to use a flash.

?    How to output your images - for print or Web.

?    How to easily manage all the photos on your computer.

?    A down-to-earth explanation of all those "geeky" photo terms.

?    When and how to hire a professional.

Movie Downloads and the Copy Protection Myth
Organizations that invest millions of dollars in movie content are very concerned about protecting their investments. That concern is perfectly reasonable. Technology companies have been happy to provide copy protection as part of their digital rights management (DRM) offerings, and movie owners hope to use these offerings to fight unauthorized use of digital content. Technical copy protection, however, will not stop piracy. The notion that copy protection can prevent digital theft is fatally flawed because it ignores two critical differences between the physical and digital worlds.
