A Short Course in Photography: Digital, 4th Edition, is a concise textbook designed for courses teaching the fundamentals of digital photography. Modeled after A Short Course in Photography: Film and Darkroom, the volume presents fundamental photographic techniques in digital form.

The text surveys essential technical and creative concepts, exploring exposure, the handling of light, and the principle of seeing like a camera. It also examines how computers, editing software, and workflow applications influence contemporary photographic practice.

To help learners evaluate equipment and pursue artistic choices, this edition incorporates work by noted contemporary artists and highlights historical milestones, including the expansion of color photography in the 1970s.
