This book was in brand new condition and much cheaper than I could find it in any of the major book retailers. I would recommend buying from this seller to anyone.
It is a great book for beginners, it explains quite a bit about the camera, and basic shooting. If your looking for something to go in depth about how to understand SLR lingo and such this is not the book for you. If your a pro get a pro book, if your a beginner get this book
I bought this book as used as described . I was very impressed with the condition of the book it may have been used but it is like brand new! The book is in lay terms easy to read and understand and I am more than pleased with it. I have already bought another book from this seller and I'm sure that I'll be back for more. Very good communication,product packaged well and very fast ship!
I like purchasing "For Dummies" books because they usually get straight to the point. This book is very detailed...the only thing is, it can get very confusing for someone, like me, who is new to photography. I don't have an SLR camera yet so I can't relate to the "f stops" and "angles" yet, so because of that, I need to take notes so that I can remember everything better. I'm sure once I get my camera, I'll be able to follow along with what I'm reading in the book. Until then, I'm just gonna keep on reading!
I THINK ALL THE "FOR DUMMIES" BOOKS ARE PRETTY WELL DONE. THEY USE HUMOR TO HOLD YOUR ATTENTION. THIS BOOK IS ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR BEGINNERS I THINK. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS AWHILE BUT I ALSO READ SOME TIPS AND IDEAS I HADN'T THOUGHT OF OR HAD THOUGHT OF IN A DIFFERENT WAY. I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR GOOD IDEAS. THIS BOOK HAS SOME.
The book did not take very long to read and was full of interesting information. I would highly recommend this book to anybody who is just entering the world of digital SLRs or wants to learn more of what you can do with your camera. This book helped me understand my owners manual better. I bought my camera to take better pictures and this book has helped me acheive that goal.
