Customer Reviews

Excellet Book
I purchased this book on 10th Nov 08. Before buying this book I also purchased a guide for Canon Rebel XTI by David D. Busch. Since I have two books from different authors, I can compare it better. I feel this book is much better and meets my expectations. I gone through varous books but no books tells you what do you mean by AV, TV etc modes, when users should use that? and what is the effects of using that. This is best book and will recommned to others.

An indepensible guide for the Amature/Enthusiest Photographer
This guide is what should be packaged with the digital rebel. It is extremely informative. I have learned so much for this manual, I take it with me wherever my camera goes. Photography is an art, and this book guides you to becoming the artist.

Disappointed
The book itself is so-so, but the illustration samples are just terrible, like if they were taken by a 6-year old kid. This excellent camera deserves a better and more thorough publication.

Save your money and look somewhere elese.
