5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Guide for EOS 450D, 29 Dec 2008
Having recently acquired a Canon EOS450D I read the supplied manual thoroughly. I then obtained "The Digital Field Guide" by Charlotte Lowrie - and despite some experience in the field was still struggling.

The DUMMIES guide is way better at doing what it says on the cover! I would thoroughly recommend it to a new user of this CAnon Camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must get if you have a Canon 450D, 4 May 2009
By Mr. Jon Forster "sensor" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This is an excellent book. It covers all the aspects of using the camera. The great thing is it gives examples of the same 'shot' with different camera settings. It also explains everything in plain English without treating you as an idiot!

In simple terms if you buy the Eos 450d then also buy this book so you can learn how to get the best from your camera.

5.0 out of 5 stars absolutely useful and easy to read, 27 Feb 2009
By G. Hai "bookfan" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I strongly recommend this book to any new owner of Canon EOS 450D, like me. I've found it really easy to read. The author has covered all the functions thoroughly and make the off-putting technical jagons otherwise appalling to novices crystal clear.The printing and bounding are excellent. Full color photos, neat illustions...really good.
