Conclusion: Essential Reading

Review: Charlotte K. Lowrie's Field Guide for the Canon XTi now travels in my camera bag wherever I go. It is an easily accesible introductory guide to the world of digital photography with a DSLR.

I found the Canon manuals that came with my camera to be technical in their approach - but the Field Guide takes you by the hand and explains it all like a patient mentor.

I am new to this. But thanks to this book, I am no longer confused or frustrated by the many controls and options on my new camera. The highest praise I can give this book is that after reading it, I am having more fun with my camera and I am taking much better photographs.

Conclusion: A Definite Buy for New Canon Rebel Owners

Review: As a new Canon Rebel camera owner, Charlotte K. Lowrie's Digital Rebel guide was the best $14 and change I've ever spent on a book. Her clear concise explanations, helpful charts and photo illustrations, as well as the excellent organization and layout of the book, make this guide a must buy for new owners. I would have been lost without it!

Evaluation:

Conclusion: Plagerized Canon manual + photos (not always good)

Review: This book is not inspiring - some of the photos are absolutely terrible (just look at the flash photography section) - AND is word-for-word the Canon manual that comes with the camera. Does Canon know about this???

Evaluation:

Conclusion: very recommended

Review: This book is a big step up from the user manual. I like it because it is XTi specific. The descriptions of the different settings are very useful. The pictures and the aperture/shutter speed settings examples really help too.

Evaluation:

Conclusion: Great Digital Field Guide

Review: Well, with my original manual stolen along with a backpack of other personal belongings, I opted to purchase this guide book and was happy that my expectations were met. It is a great guide that afforded me (and still does upon reference) a better insight into my 400D and its inner workings. Imagining what I could do with my camera has been very exciting and this instructional book thoroughly and clearly explains the capabilities of the camera and aides me in realizing my photographic wishes. Great start to getting into digital photography exposures.
