If you must quote someone, at least quote the FULL sentence not half a sentence completely out of context. Anyone else complaining about "having to fork out £5" for Matt's book should remember that alternative's such as Strobist DVD 8 Disk Lighting Tutorial cost £111.35 inc. delivery from The Flash Centre. Whilst I would certainly complain about having to fork out £111.35 I fully understand that if I needed that knowledge, that's the going rate and thousands of people (85% amateurs) have found it to be excellent value and no doubt it is. Just look at what people (mostly amateur) have said about it on Flickr. shim

Quote: Clearly Matt you are a man who wears many hats, phtographic tech support, top notch photographer as well as a publisher. If Murdoch had any sense he would sign you up for his " newspapers". Keep up the good work and get well soon. Thanks Joe My main "work" hat is firmware design and coding - that involves a fair degree of technical writing too ( www.scannex.com ) But it's probably the analytical nature of my work that lets my head retain all this techno stuff on photography. Photography is my artist outlet to stop the technical rot from setting in too deep! LOL! Quote: I seriously believe Pentax should buy the rights to reproduce Matt's book, and use it for a manual, with the flash units. or at least tell people where to buy a copy.

Hi Matt - Just ordered your eBook after reading all the posts on the subject. Flash is an area I have left alone, mainly due to the time needed to absorb all the techie bits etc. Your book should get me sorted - many thanks
