Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A worse dummy than I thought!I think I must need a 'Total Idiot's Guide' as this was not what I thought it would be. Being a complete beginner with dSLR, I thought this book would be a step-by-step guide on 'How To....' I was a bit wide of the mark - although the book says a lot about why you should do this over that, etc it left me lost on how to actually do it. So I'm using my camera on Auto until my Nikon book arrives. Let's hope I'll have more success with that one. Rating:  - excellent bookBought the book on the strength of the previous two reviews as I've not really been keen on the "dummies" books previously. This one, though, is excellent. If you've spent a chunk of money on a new digital camera (like my EOS 40d!) you really should spend another £10 and read this, and actually start to understand how it all works! (If you're already expert then you won't be needing this, but understanding even how the digital sensor works is really interesting) It's printed on good quality glossy paper (unlike some of the dummies books) and includes some really nice images. Well worth it Rating: - The best book I've read for DSLR beginnersA real creative education from a proper photographer. Easy to read, and packed full of tips and tricks. Get this one. Rating: - Usual Dummies style - easy, well layed out and informative.Excellent book. Covers all the basics and also goes more in depth. The chapters explore the technical side of digital SLRs in a easy going well paced text. The illustrations and photos serve to enhance the understanding, rather than the author showing how totally amazing they are at taking photos and leaving you wondering. The last few chapters move from the technical side of photography, into the artistic side of composition and editing. This book would suit someone completely new to photography, through to the person making the move from film to digital.
