Hi Guys

I've had my 20D for 3 months now and have only shot Jpegs.

I want to start shooting RAW as well.

I will be a complete novice at Photoshop, but am prepared to put in the time to get to grips with it.

Are there any recommendations for good Photoshop 7 Books or other resources?

Thanks

Scott Kelby books are all fantastic and very readable.

I'll second the Kelby comments and offer up DVD training. It's a 7 DVD training series from Total Training titled "Total Training for Adobe Photoshop CS. I learned more about Photoshop this way then from any book I ever used. It provides great direction but also includes a fair dose of theory such as color maangement etc. If I recall retail is about $200 but it can be had on eBay for less.
