I found that this book provided me with more useful information than the manual that came with the camera. It defines the different modes in more detail and gives more examples about when you would use a feature.

This would be a good book for most people. Might be a little technical for the absolute beginner, but I would recommend it to them anyway.

After buying this 35mm camera online, I realized that it did not come with the original guide. Fortunately, I found this Magic Lantern Guide at such a reasonable price. The guide is clearly written, easy to understand, and very helpful--probably much better than the original guide that would have come with the camera. If all the Magic Lantern Guides are this clear and well-written, I would recommend them--I definitely recommend this one.

If you're like me, and you just got this fantastic camera on ebay, or craigslist, but you know nothing about the camera, then this book is worth getting. Most of us who've been around cameras could probably figure out 90% of what we need to know, just by picking up the camera and fiddling with it, especially if you've owned other canon EOS cameras, but certain small details, there's no way to really know about them unless you have a book like this.

I've learned so much from this book about this great camera, I'm glad I got it.
