This is the first "now shipping" alert for a book, but Scott Kelby writes on his blog that volume #3 of his Digital Photography Book series is now in-stock and shipping at Amazon.com for $15. Free shipping is included if the total of your order is $25 or more. If you don't need anything else, you can always buy a $10+ gift card and qualify for free shipping.
If you are interested in checking out the LensWork magazine without risking a subscription or paying full-price at the bookstore, you are in luck! Because LensWork has a sample-offer on their website.
For just $5, you will receive a sample issue of the magazine and a sample issue of the "extended" edition of the magazine on computer-DVD. LensWork will decide which sample issue to send you. Free shipping is included with the offer! Please note however that this offer is only available to USA mailing addresses.
You can thank Howard Grill for this - he mentioned the LensWork website on his blog, and clicking around led us to discovering this offer.
Barnes and Noble has launched a new eBooks section on their website and an eReader software application that goes with it. The supported platforms are computers (PC/Mac), iPhone and Blackberry. Each one of these platforms has its own reader which is free to download and use.
And to celebrate the launch, Barnes and Noble is offering a six-pack of free ebooks, which includes some classics (Mohicans, Little Women, Pride and Prejudice), along with a dictionary.
Currently there are not a lot of eBooks on photography, although some of John Muir's public-domain books are available as free eBook downloads. However, this is something to watch for, not so much for the picture-books, but for the instructional, essay, and biographical camera/photography books.
If you are looking for photography books old and new (or any type of books for that matter), Abebooks is having a free shipping promotion. Millions of books qualify for free shipping and you don't even have to make a minimum purchase to get free shipping.
You can search for qualifying books by title, author, keyword or ISBN. Books that qualify for free shipping have a small orange "FREE" shipping icon next to them. A search for the word "photography" in the title returned 4000+ results.
If you are a Nikon fanboy, you can't pass up on this deal! For just $3, you can get the Nikon School: Guide Book to Digital SLR Photography. This is sold by PhotoWorld on Amazon for $3 with free shipping and handling. This is a 75-page booklet in paperback.
As you can expect from its size, this is not a comprehensive and in-depth book, so if you are already an expert, you can probably write one like this.
