Reviews
Busch must have been born to write books like this. His writing is very clear, comprehensive and helpful. He mixes in just enough anecdotes and analogies to help make the less obvious clear and also lighten up the mood. He has lots of real-world experience to share in this book.Whether the T1i/500D is your first DSLR and you're new to serious photography, or if you're a seasoned pro just looking to learn some of the finer details about the T1i, you'll get a lot out of this book. I've yet to find anything it doesn't cover.My only gripe is there are a couple places where Busch likely mis-quoted content from one his earlier Canon DSLR books. For example he get's the maximum ISO wrong in one place as it's likely the max ISO of a previous model. But I haven't found anything that's likely to lead anyone astray. On the whole, it's remarkably free of errors.If you own the T1i/500D, and are trying to make do with the Canon supplied manual, you owe it to yourself to get this book or a similar one like the Digital Field Guide if you want something a bit smaller.
