5.0 out of 5 stars Intro to 50D, April 18, 2009

By	Suzanne F. Rupert - See all my reviews

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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Helpful for 50D, June 17, 2009

By	Edg "Edgu" (San Pedro CA) - See all my reviews

I am a novice photographer and I recently purchased a Canon 50D which is somewhat above my paygrade, but figured that I would grow into it. The training video is well organized but a little too fast for the novice. The upside is you can view it over and over and over again until you get it right. I would like to have seen it go a little slower and a step by step presentation. I would purchase it again and will probably purchase the others in the series.
