Book Reviews of David Busch's Canon EOS Rebel XS/1000D Guide to Digital SLR Photography
Book Review: Most complete and accurate Rebel XS Guide
Summary: 5 Stars
My whole family recently made the transition to Canon from another brand, and I'm glad that this author's books were available to help us. I was so pleased with Busch's guide to the Canon EOS 50D that I purchased this one at the same time my wife picked up her Rebel XS. It has the same kind of in-depth coverage of the camera I found in the 50D book, arranged in a way that won't confuse a beginner. Yet, there is enough meat here that as you learn you'll continually find new techniques and information to help you grow photographically.
Simply put, this book has roughly twice as much useful information as the other XS books I looked at. The compact guides do a good job of explaining the different features and controls, but this one does it better, with lots of tips on why and when you should use a particular setting. When my wife and I upgrade to our next cameras in a year or three, we'll do it with confidence as long as Busch's guides are there to show us the way.
