Fantastic book! I got a new camera like many and didn't have a clue what to do with all its features. I didn't even know what aperture or shutter meant, generally speaking. This book is for the beginner. It reads in such a way that it reaches out to you and holds your attention. The Author is great at keeping clear and understandable. You can't go wrong with this book if you are truly interested in finding more out about the camera you don't often use.

I got this book as a gift for my wife who has been interested in learning photography. This book was perfect it gives visuals and explain explanations of settings and shooting styles of both cannon and Nikon cameras. She was excited and within a day was taking great pictures.

Great summary of how to use a camera - the only thing it's missing is some advice on composition.

Great book for new and experienced photographers! I recommend it!
