Canon EOS Rebel T7/2000D For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))

I had no idea what to do with my new camera, and after fooling around with it I thought it had been a waste of money. My iPhone takes great pictures, so why bother with something so complicated? This book explains EVERYTHING so WELL and gave me hope that I can actually learn to use this camera. Step by step, button by button, menu by menu -- it's all laid out so clearly with great illustrations. It also makes it easy to skip to another chapter to read more about a topic that's just been introduced if you want to delve deeper right away instead of reading the chapters in order. But to be clear, this is like taking a class. I could not just read it and then go take great pictures right away. I'm learning vocabulary, procedures and tricks -- with my camera in hand so that I can practice as I read. Then I go out and take some pictures. I remember some things and forget others -- but when I go back to the book and reread pages that I have questions about, it becomes more clear and I become more confident. Each day I read a little more and retain a little more, and my photos are getting better with practice. I'm so glad I purchased this book and highly recommend it as a beginner course and as a way to get the most out of your camera.

Excellent beginner book for the Canon 2000D/T7 model DSLR camera. The book is nicely organized, and the author takes you through each aspect of the camera in clear, easy to understand language. I highly recommend.

More helpful than the manual that came with my camera.

UPDATE!!! - This book is absolutely amazing. From someone who had never even owned anything but a simple point and shoot digital camera you see any teenager with, I had absolutely no knowledge on my camera nor did I have any knowledge on what goes in to making a properly exposed picture. This book literally explains all. It does bounce around (given the topic I’m not surprised) but even though it bounces around it will point you to what ever area of the book has more info on its topic or info previously covered incase you forgot. This book is the holy grail for this camera and I honestly feel like the maker should partner with canon to include it with the camera purchase. I bought this book with the intent to make a “field book/ cheat book” for easy general info when I’m out shooting away from home. Going through this book, taking notes, and learning what all my camera does and can do is amazing. It does things that I didn’t even know cameras could do. Things I thought you could only do through editing. This book leaves no stone, however big or small, unturned. If you want this book just to try to skip straight to shooting in manual, you are doing yourself a big injustice. In order to understand the camera and the exposure fully and properly you must start with the basics that come with the automatic functions. Which the book happens to start out with. There’s so many pictures to explain what it’s talking about so there’s no confusing while reading. If you own this camera you NEED this book! Original Review: So far as the book itself it’s so easy to understand. It breaks down everything to literally the point a “dummy” can understand it. It’s in a very easy to read format And from the start I’m learning stuff I either didn’t understand In the manual due to wording or just plain out not being able to easily find the information I want. I’m new to this and purchased my Cannon rebel T7 to take pictures of my daughter growing up. I’ve always had a fascination with cameras but as a beginner I need the terminology broke down and explained and this book does just that. I haven’t finished the book yet, I’m just beginning, however the amount I’ve learned from the first 14 pages is insane. Please start shipping in a box not a bag. I’m very OCD about books and because this was not properly packaged the book came with dents and dings on the cover and spine. I was a little upset about it.

Great/ fantastic book to explain the functions of our camera.

Fantastic book love the author. She really explains everything in such a clear and fun way. Definitely recommend the book especially if you struggle understanding the complicated theory of digital photography.

Very informative, great resource for learning my camera. Would buy again.

I love the book, however, it came in damaged. The book itself is a great book filed with helpful information.

Fantastic informative book on Canon 2000D, I have learnt a lot from it, very good condition and quick delivery, I would certainly recommend it and the seller.

It's easy to read and to understand, great book for the price... Well worthy buying...

I love the fact that the authoress takes the time to explain ever nook and cranny on the camera, as well as describing what each item does. I learned more about my camera in the first few pages than I did by watching the Cannon Rebel videos. This book is a must have for newwbie camera peeps. You have the option of starting at the beginning and going to then end or just randomly looking something up and going from there. Well Done! This book is a 10 out of 10.

Great little book easy explanations

This book was perfect for learning how to use my new camera. As someone who had little to no background knowledge on it, this book was vital to learning how to use it properly and safely without damaging it. As I learned you can damage the lens etc if not used correctly. Great info.
