 Great personal look at the 40D May 8, 2008

This book covers a lot of what's in the owners manual but presents it in a personal manner that makes for much better interpretation then the owners manual.
It's easy to read and even entertaining something you can't say for the Canon owners manual and rightfully so of course since the owners manual has to be as concise as possible to fit into your pocket.
In additional this book provided solutions to problems the author had while using his 40D both hardware and software that really came in handy.
I heartily recommend "Canon EOS 40D Guide to Digital Photography!

I read about half the book and it has been very helpful for me to review and learn things I fined helpful in using my new Canon 40D . It is good to know different setting in using the camera.
 Read the Book? See the video. May 2, 2008

I bought this book at the same time as the Blue Crane Canon 40D Video. I spent and hour or so going through the book before I left on a business trip. I took the video on the trip. I thought that the book was OK and will make a decent reference source but the Blue Crane video is a better introductory source. If a picture is worth a thousand words this video has dozens of pitures. The advantage of the book is no player required.
If I could only have one (and had a DVD player and power) I would take the video.
The Book Every 40D Owner Should Own April 24, 2008

This book covers the Canon EOS 40D from the standpoint of a user, not a software engineer. I especially like how well the 40D's many menus are described throughout the book. The LCD screen description is also very well labeled. The photos taken by the author throughout the book also help to illustrate a number of the functions. I have used the camera extensively, and this book should help photographers of any level get up to speed faster.
The explanation of the Live View feature was also very helpful and worth mentioning because it can be tricky to locate it and make it work properly.
