Rating:  Summary: Good guide...but could have been better! Review: I recently purchased this book as a gift for my mother-in-law (who owns a Rebel TI)...When the book arrived, I couldn't resist the temptation to rip open the shrink wrap and see how it compares to my Canon EOS 5 Magic Lantern Guide.Compared to the Canon owner's manual this book is terrific and an invaluable resource. Compared to other Magic Lantern guides I have read...it's a bit of a let down. The book gives a great, concise explaination of how to use all the camera's functions...however it's writing style is a bit stiff and not user-friendly enough to make a developing photographer want to keep picking up this book. Perhaps this book needs a collaborating writer to help it along. I think a revision of the text by a 2nd writer could definitely help this book reach out to its readers. If you own a Rebel TI and want to better understand how to use the camera to take professional pictures...this book is a definite must...just be forewarned that it reads a lot like a textbook.
Rating:  Summary: Very Helpful Review: This book covers all the camera controls plus tells you how various settings relate to the finished picture. I found it much more helpful than the instruction book which was rather cryptic. I would recommend this if you want to really get the most out of your camera.
