5 out of 5 stars This book has been some of my favorite reading!   April 8, 2003
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

After I bought a used A2E, I bought this book to substitute for the owner's manual. I thought I would be using it as an occasional reference and be done with it. I was wrong. This is a very concise and informative guide to photography for both beginners as well as advanced amateurs and semi-pros. Even though I've used Canon SLR's for the last 22 years (along with my large format equipment) and have taught photography at the college level, I found that this book was a valuable refresher of 35mm skills as well as a helpful alternative to the owner's manual.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent camera manual.   August 4, 2001

Is far more in depth than the manual that you get with the camera when you purchase it. Will teach you what everything on your camera does and how to do it. It is also a great resource to read if thinking about buying the camera, before making the investment. I have the A2 and enjoy it thoroughly. It compares well with much more expensive cameras.


5 out of 5 stars I give this manual a thumbs up!   June 13, 2000

I found this book to be a great deal better than the manual that accompanied my EOS A2. It's clear, concise, easy to read, understand and a great book for the amateur or the professional. I like the way this book delved into specific areas and gave recommendations and tips for particular situations. For cameras like the EOS A2, manuals like this are essential for understanding its features and to make photography meaningful and rewarding. My only criticism would be the lack of an index. I've been involved in photography for 25 years and rate myself as an intermediate to advanced.


5 out of 5 stars A Must Have If You Own This Camera or the EOS 5   April 1, 2000

Not only does this expand on the manual, it gives additional information. Elaborates on many functions the manual only touched on as well as mentioned others the manual ignored. Offers extensive information on lenses, flashes and other accessories. The EOS 5 is the international version of this camera and this book is entirely compatible with it as well (that is the camera I own). Buy it, you won't be sorry (even if you think you already "know" your camera).

This book also covers the Canon EOS 5 which is what I have. This book filled in the blanks or gave reasons why cerain things work the way they do. It also gave recomendations and sugestions from professionals who have used the camera. I have used single lens reflex cameras since 1954. I rate myself as an advanced amature photographer.
