 Senior photography book : In the past ten years, 20 million digital cameras have been sold in the UK, and older people are snapping up the new technology faster than you can say single lens reflex. Digital photography is not just popular with older people for its own sake; it can also open the door to the world of personal computing and the internet. To continue to help older people make the most of the digital revolution, Age Concern is publishing Your Digital Camera Made Easy by Jackie Sherman. This guide is for beginners over 50 wanting to get to grips with digital photography. It’s ideal for existing snappers who want to get more out of their digital camera. The beautifully illustrated book will be published on 12 April.

 Digital camera photography book
Your Digital Camera Made Easy by Jackie Sherman costs £8.99 and is available from all good bookshops or direct from the publisher at Age Concern Books. Your Digital Camera Made Easy will help people whether they’re thinking of buying a digital camera, already have a digital camera but want to use its more advanced features, or just want to be more creative with the photos they take. Gordon Lishman, Director General of Age Concern, said: “While many over 50s are already familiar with digital cameras, others have yet to discover digital photography and open the door to personal computing, email and the internet. Jargon-heavy guides can make this new technology appear daunting, but this book will give anyone the confidence to get snapping.”
Senior photography book - Your digital camera made easy
James Redden, 65, enjoys using his digital camera. He’s also taken up a computer course with his local Age Concern in Sunderland to get the most out of digital photography. James said: “I thought that if I was to get the most out of my digital camera I needed to become computer savvy, so I’ve been on a computer course since January. I am finding out so many things that digital photography allows me to do, such as sending photos by email and editing images as well as producing traditional prints. I’m also getting the bonus of learning about personal computing at the same time. I guess that’s what you could call a double exposure!”
