Scott Kelby's Digital Photography Boxed Set, Volumes 1, 2, and 3
Kindle Version Difficult to Use, December 11, 2010
By Bryansay - See all my reviewsAmazon Verified Purchase(What's
this?)
This review is from: Scott Kelby's Digital Photography Books, Volumes
1, 2, and 3, ePub (Kindle Edition)
This review is specific to the Kindle version of the box set. These
are great books. So good, in fact that I bought the Kindle version for
my iPad even though I already own a set of print edition. I intend to
use this as a reference while traveling with my camera.

Despite my enthusiasm for the content, the Kindle edition set is very
difficult to use. All three books are delivered as a single file, but
the table of contents pulled up by the menu only refers to book one.
To find the contents of book 2 & 3, one must search or manually scan
the pages. This issue renders the Kindle book very difficult to use as
a reference.

Updated: Amazon informs me that the only option is to contact the
publisher or take a refund. With regret, I have accepted a refund and
will continue to use the print edition. I cannot recommend that you
buy the kindle edition of this set.
