   I am a technical person, but I am new to photography, so after purchasing my first DSLR camera (Canon EOS Rebel T1i), I decided to get a book to learn the use of advanced features. I have to say that the book is helpful but it is confusing for a beginner. I think I will have to get another book.

   I’ve found this book easy to follow, if you can consider any camera manual easy. I especially like the custom settings section which completely explains each of the options and not just how to change it. My suggestion is to have the book open in front of you with camera in hand as you read so you can see exactly what she is trying to explain.

   I’m new to the SLR world and was taken back by the numerous features offered by the T1i. Like most guys, I didn’t want to ask questions or take time to read manuals. I figured it would be simple enough to push some buttons and make the thing work….After this approach failed, I began searching for help. I skimmed through several books on the T1i and found this reference to be the most complete and instructional. The wealth of information found within this book is perfect for the beginner photographer striving for professional photographer instruction and image results. This is a fantastic resource and I would recommend it to anyone!

   The Canon T1i is my first DSLR camera, so I am a complete novice. I was very excited about getting this camera, however, I was completely overwhelmed with all the settings and functions the camera offers. I knew the camera offered a lot more than my point and shoot camera, but I was not using it nearly to the full capacity. The instruction manual that comes with the camera is extremely sparse, and leaves a lot of questions about how to actually use the camera in the real world, or how to make your pictures better. And with that, came my copy of Charlotte Lowrie’s Cannon T1i Digital Field Guide. This is the first field guide I have used, so I just started from the beginning. The book is very well written and makes for an easy read. The color illustrations and examples of the varying camera settings are perfect at demonstrating what the text is referring to. The saying “a picture is worth a thousand words” is exemplified by this book that uses a color pictures to demonstrate nearly every situation and variable that can be altered. One of the other pleasant parts of the book was the final few chapters that discussed the art of photography and some of the accoutrements of the camera.
   
   All in all, this book is excellent for teaching you how to use your new DSLR! Even though I am still a novice, I imagine this book will continue to be useful to me as my blossoming interest in photography continues to grow.

   I just bought a Rebel T1i in June. This is my first DSLR and I was able to figure out a lot about the camera without reading the manual but I don’t know all that much about photography in general and knew that I wasn’t using this camera to its fullest potential. I like this guide because it not only explains the finer details on how to use this camera but also incorporates information on photography in general. I also like how detailed the book is, which is good for me because when I’m learning something new I need it explained to a T. This book made me more comfortable with exploring things, such as setting custom functions, which I hadn’t even touched before. It also adds more of an explanation to things that the manual just mentioned briefly. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to use this camera to its fullest potential and not just in auto mode.
