Canon EOS 5D Mark II [With Quick Reference Wallet Card]

Great book if you have a Cannon 5D Mark II camera. Of no need to anyone else as I see it. JT

If you want to learn how to put the 5D Mark ii to work for you then buy this informative book. I was pretty familiar with the 5D and happy with the photographs taken with it but still had questions as to "what this was for" and "whether I should set this feature to a yes or to a no" and Brian McLernon's book answered all of my questions, seriously every single one of them. I couldn't put the book down and now after finishing it I can't wait to take my next set of pictures with the information I learned. I read all books with a great deal of detail and am disappointed much of the time with only picking up a couple of bits of information after finishing the book, but this Brian McLernon's book is just the opposite with page after page of clearly communicated information on how to set the camera up to capture the images you set out to get. I also like reasonable size of book enabling me to toss in my camera bag available reference as needed. If I had one wish it would be that the sample photographs in the book were less mundane and more artistic. The pictures are nearly as good as the content. Brice Bowman [...]

I find the manual very informative, illustations are great, and easy to use. I highly recommend it.

This was the only tutorial available when I purchased my new 5D MK ll so for such an inexpensive price, i ordered it. I found it to be an easy read and a better explanation of the camera's features over Canon's manual that comes with the camera. There are certainly a number of very basic sections that could be suitable for the beginner as well as detailed sections on the new features specific to this model that for me (an experience hobbyest) were interesting and helpful. I found myself marking various pages and sections to come back to and know this will be one of the books I will frequently refer to.

I found this book very thorough. It is far more comprehensive than the included Canon manual. I carry this in my camera bag as a quick reference.
