Finally!  What i needed in one place.  I bought this book for Elements 8 and couldn't believe how much easier it was to edit photos (in very specific and short, easy to understand directions for dummies like me that feel like PSE tutorials are written in foreign languages).  Unfortunately, I needed to upgrade to 10 because I wasn't able to open raw photos but the book still works, though thinking of getting the 10 version if its out there.  It wasn't cheap at B&N, like $48 for a softcover book (yuck!) but maybe a used copy would be available on Amazon for less. 

Just wanted to recommend it.  I have really fixed some problem photos with this and I like being able to do it all in one program.  I know there is probably some disadvantage to not using the Canon software for adjusting white balance, exposure, etc. with raw photos, but I really like using this.

Kelby and Klozkowski are a couple if geniuses in my eyes. They usually have a good way of explaining things that seemed over my head at times.
I just picked up Kelbys book for LR4 and I am glad I did. SUPER informative.
Take your camera with you dammit. You can't take your next "best photo" if your camera is sitting at home in the bag, now can you?
