Real World Camera Raw by Bruce Fraser

Does anybody know if there are an updated version of this book on the way soon for CS2?

Tommy.
The new CS2 version is just published, released, and available. In US$. on-line stores are 30-35% cheaper than book stores for this stuff.
I really like Fraser's writing style. He is a photographer, not just a Photoshop author/geek, and a darn practical author. That is where I picked up using Adobe Camera RAW to restore lost highlight detail and balance midtones on excess high contrast outdoor images. I'll post some examples for you.
He's also the reason I use Prophoto RGB colorspace for RAW conversion of landscape images with lots of green/yellow detail.

You can trust most anything Fraser writes in print or web (at CreativePro.com) about Color Management, PS, slide scanning, RAW workflow to WORK. I like a lot of the books published by PeachPit Press.

Regards, Jack

Thanks, I do have the version for CS, just have not read it all yet.

Got my copy a few weeks ago (I pre-ordered it), but haven't had time to read it yet.

Tried to order the book at the Peachpit website but they only ship with UPS to Denmark and I want it to be shipped with regular postal services because getting a packet via UPS here in Denmark is PITA.

Anybody know other online shops that has the book? I checked Amazon UK but they don't have it yet.

Haha! I read mine 2-3 times til it drove my wife crazy reading in bed til 1 am!
Then I bought PhotoKit Sharpener from Bruce Fraser's Pixel Genius company. That really changed my workflow and approach to digital. It cut the time for RAW workflow dramatically, and results in mind-boggling good prints. J.

On Amazon, if you look closely at the pic of the actual book it says For CS2. However, it doesn't say that on Amazon's webpage. I'd jsut want to be sure I'm getting the right thing.
