Product Description

Product Description
Through a series of easy-to-follow lessons, The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi/D450 Companion gives you a complete class on digital photography, tailored specifically for people who use this camera. This is not a typical camera guide: rather than just showing you what all the buttons do, this unique book teaches you how to use various Digital Rebel features to make great photographs.

With The Canon Digital Rebel XSi Companion in your camera bag, you have the perfect field reference for taking stunning pictures of any occasion or place, any time. You get valuable creative tips and technical advice for capturing professional-looking images of people, landscapes, action shots, close-ups, night shots, and more.

  • Get to know the Digital Rebel XSi and how it works
  • Take creative control and go beyond automatic settings
  • Learn the basic rules of composition
  • Know when to let the camera work for you
  • Photograph fast-moving objects, and learn to capture decisive moments
  • Discover ways to use a flash indoors and outdoors
  • Learn the advantages of different lenses, and the best time to use them
  • Understand the options for shooting RAW, and whether it's right for you

There are plenty of photography books, but only this companion guide teaches you how to take high-quality digital photos using the camera model you own. Professional photographer Ben Long includes plenty of full-color examples to show you what's possible once you graduate from snapshots and focus on the pictures you've always wanted to take.

5.0 out of 5 stars great for beginners, 12 April 2009
By nmid (bucks, england) - See all my reviews
if your new to photography like me then this book is spot on! it gives you a fairly in depth description of each function of the canon 450d but at the same time explaining (often in laymans terms) what/when/why you would use these functions. i learned a lot from this book and it has given me more confidence to begin using more of the manual settings and experimenting. I would highly recommend this book

5.0 out of 5 stars A huge help., 19 Jul 2009
By J. Morgan - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having ordered this camera from Amazon aided by reviews from your customers and a friend,I also ordered this book after reading its reviews. I was not disappointed. This camera being my first SLR, I was frightened.I am the type of person who needs to read all about it before I turn the machine on. This book is easy to understand but supplies great detail. It helped me set up the camera and then start to take photos without all the usual angst, although I didn't realise I should take the lens cap off! Ha,Ha first mistake! It was more helpful than the accompanying manual, and the way it has been written, you feel like your friend is beside you talking you through each step, giving little tutorials along the way.I dip in and out regularly and this book will be my companion for some time to come while I getting to grip with things.There is so much to learn and a big thank you to the author for smoothing the path.
