Good beginner book for digital photographers5
I recently purchased this book to help me get aquainted with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi. The book is very easy to read and provides you with just the right amount of information to use your camera. It even provides some help on buying a camera if you are reading the book prior to ownership of a Canon EOS product. The book also serves as a good quick reference guide if you need to go back and revisit topics. If your a beginner to digital photography and your thinking of buying a Canon EOS or already own one, this book is for you.

Great instructor4
A fantastic book that augments TFLB that comes with the camera. It cuts through the tech jargon and gets to the point quickly and conceisely. While sometimes trying to be too witty, it is certainly an excellant book to launch one into the world of DSLR. This is the only reason I didn't give it five stars.

Very helpful book on instruction and photography!5
I found this book to be entirely helpful. It is full of useful information on all of the features for these cameras as well as photography in general. I have taken classes through my local camera store but this book is more helpful and easy to understand. It breaks down information in chapters (obviously) so it is easily referenced. It explains things in a way that you can very easily comprehend...I bought one for a Christmas present for a friend I liked it so much!
