5.0 out of 5 stars Just the Book You Need to Get Started
The instruction manuals that come with the Canon Powershot G5 and G6 are impossible to decipher. (One could be stuck in Automatic forever)! But Dennis Curtin comes to the rescue with a book that includes clear, simple explanations and illustrations that make it easy to understand all of the functions that can seem so confusing to the new digital camera user.

1.0 out of 5 stars A complete waste of time and money!
I bought this book thinking I would get some new and exciting information about the Powershot G5. Some tips and tricks on getting better photographs USING the G5 features. Instead, this book is just a combination of the EXACT same content from the Users Manual and any basic book on photography. Nothing new. Nothing exciting. Nothing interesting.

I bought this book thinking I would get some new and exciting information about the Powershot G5. Some tips and tricks on getting better photographs USING the G5 features. Instead, this book is just a combination of the EXACT same content from the Users Manual and any basic book on photography. Nothing new. Nothing exciting. Nothing interesting.

It was also a big let down when I saw it. It's actually a bunch of black and white photocopies (Xerox) bound together in a spiral. Like a school report from the early 90's. It shouldn't cost more that five dollars.

I believe the auther and publishers just put it together just to make some easy money. And I fell for it. I should've known when it had no reviews.

After this, I will NEVER buy another book from them and I strongly suggest you see it before you buy it. No wonder you can't see the inside in amazon!!!

He's done a fine job. A life saver. Highly recommended.
