A Short Course in Canon EOS 30D Photography

This book/eBook package and the interactive animations you play by clicking links in the eBook guide you to full mastery of the feature-rich Canon EOS 30D digital SLR camera. The package is really an introductory photography course based on your own camera that teaches you everything you need to know to capture more interesting and exciting photographs.

In this clear and easy-to-understand book you’ll see how every control on your camera affects your images, especially their exposure, color, and sharpness. You'll see why and when you use specific settings, not just how to set them. You’ll find yourself quickly mastering your camera and capturing the kinds of photos you hope for.

The book is printed in black & white and has a popular spiral binding that lets the book lie flat or be folded back. The accompanying eBook on a CD disc is a printable and searchable full-color version of the same book in Adobe's popular PDF format. The eBook can be read on a PC or Mac using the free Acrobat Reader or any current Web browser. Throughout the eBook are buttons you click to run more than 50 interactive animations that bring to life the core concepts of digital photography such as exposure compensation, lens focal lengths, histograms, and much, much more. (To use these multimedia features you do need an Internet connection.)

The author has edited, published, or written many of the best selling textbooks in digital photography so he knows how photographers learn. If you want to take an introductory photography course based on your own camera, you won’t find a better way to do it.
