Of course, one of the things you will have to steel yourself for, if this book goes forward, is reviewers saying "too bad he didn't use a higher resolution camera". Absolutely. As far as reviews are concerned, having worked in theater for decades, I'm made of titanium. (g) Personaly, I've never purchased a photography book based on a review, nor have I avoided a photo book based on a review. I have no idea about the habits of other photo book buyers, but suspect photo books are purchased mainly on the basis of browsing them in a book store. I don't believe photo book reviews make or break their appeal. I do believe that most photo and other image art books are either an impulse buy based on the purchaser's prior personal preferences, or a very educated buy based on the buyer's own sophisticated prior knowledge. I could be dead wrong, of course.
