5.0 out of 5 stars Intro to 50D, April 18, 2009
This review is from: Introduction to the Canon 50D, Vol. 1: Basic Controls (DVD)
This is a great tool for learning about the 50D and learning how to create beautiful photographs. It is well organized and simplified so that someone who does not know all the digital photo terms can understand. I highly recommend this item.

This review is from: Introduction to the Canon 50D, Vol. 1: Basic Controls (DVD)
A must have, if you are just entering the SLR Digital world. I'm a little more advanced and still found it great. You will get to know your camera, with knowledge you will not find in the manual or any other Books.
