Title: SOME VERY USEFUL INFO, BUT NOT ENOUGH SUBSTAN
Product review: As other reviewers have noted, this book is simply not worth the money. Admitedly it has a few bits of useful information not easily available elsewhere, but for the most part it is simply a repetition (with a few interesting illustrations to make the point) of what is in the manual that comes with a camera. Even worse, much of the book is devoted to explaining fundamental photographic principles, available almost anywhere else. This is supposed to be a book exclusively about the Digital Rebel, not a primer on photo fundamentals. In addition, the poor print and binding quality is unforgivable in an era where even $5.95 books are professionally printed & professionally bound. Perhaps if the key information not found elsewhere about the digital rebel were distilled form here and compiled with other vital digital rebel info in another (shorter) book, it would be worth getting. But certainly not for the asking price of this book.
