Magic Lantern Guides: Canon EOS Rebel Ti EOS 300v

This guidebook is kind of an intensive read. To fully benefit from all the knowledge it contains, be prepared to spend a full day or two experimenting with the camera as per the specific "exercises" in depth of field, light metering etc. that the book outlines. An absolute beginner in the medium of photography, (such as myself) might be intimidated on first glance, but the info is all there. The only shadow of objection that I have with this book is with the unnecessary and, (in my opionion) gratuitous depiction of semi-nude women throughout in example photos, (lol.) Otherwise... definitely worth the money Densely-packed informative guide that adequately explains the idiosyncrasies of the EOS Rebel TI 300V.

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.

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.
