This is a very handy book for a new camera. It makes finding all the settings and features very easy. Plus it fits in my camera bag nicely. I wish I had one for my last camera.

Smaller than I expected, but it's a beautiful addition to my drawing skills educational books. I'd love to read other books from this series.

I love the rocky nook books. I have many and have always taken things away from them and learned something new. This one is no different!

This is more of an identifier of buttons and their functions. Don't expect it to answer a question or give a short cut to a menu selection.

One of the best books to learn about your camera. Shows you how to do things in the menu rather than just show you where they are as in the user guide.

Got a concern with the Canon 5D Mark IV. Check the index and find a concise definition and solution. A great resource for learning the many features of the Canon 5D Mark IV. Other camera books have been just so-so. This one is easy to read and find out what you need.

This book provided my little sister with all the resources to help guide her in the direction of an artist. She was struggling with creating proportionate figures and shapes to portray a realistic image, and with this book she now has the motivation to go and improve on her art further. I highly recommend this towards up and coming artists.

I looked all over the web for this title. Adorama had the best price by far! Even over Amazon!

Beautiful, informative, well written and, of course, well illustrated book. Certainly a must for first time drone photographers with lots of tips. Have purchased two more copies to give as Christmas gifts to friend drone flyers.

This book is very in depth and informative and well worth the price. It goes into much more detail than the camera manual and expands on the functions.

The one I purchased had defects that lead me to believe it’s a factory second.

Great book. Working my way through. So much insight, simple to read and understand. First camera purchase in many years. I was thankful it has the basics and more advanced chapters to work on. Very well written and thought out for the working photographer. So not the manufacturers manual. Practical, and concise. I highly recommend this book. There’s a nugget in every chapter!

Ordered The Natural Light Portrait Book and it showed up on time and I highly recommend this book as well as Adorama. If you want someone you can trust, order from Adorama.

In this updated, second edition of the authoritative, bestselling Mastering Canon EOS Flash Photography, photographer NK Guy brings the book fully up to date, with coverage of all the newest Canon gear that has hit the market since the first edition published in 2010. This includes coverage of the radio-enabled Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT and Canon Speedlite Transmitter ST-E3-RT, as well as the other Speedlites that have released since the first edition's publication: Canon Speedlite 90EX, 270EX II, 320EX, and 600EX. And this is the first book to cover Canon's new, affordable master unit-the Speedlite 430EX III-RT flash!
Digital cameras and flash technology have truly revolutionized photography in the 21st century. Originally seen simply as a practical way to illuminate dark scenes with portable light, flash today is used for a host of creative and nuanced applications, including supplementing daylight, designing complex scenes lit by multiple light sources, and simply creating beautiful, controllable light for portraiture. With LCD screens on DSLRs, the ability to get instant feedback on lighting setups is a great help in advancing one's lighting capabilities and encouraging experimentation.
However, flash photography can still be a difficult artistic and technical challenge. It's simple to get that harsh deer-in-the-headlights look from built-in automatic flash, but it is a far cry from beautiful light. Creating natural-looking images is not nearly as straightforward. Mastering the properties of light and the ability to manipulate, craft, and direct it is a lifelong endeavor. Those diving into Speedlights need some help. Manuals are terse and the terminology is confusing-this is where Mastering Canon EOS Flash Photography comes in.
This is the complete book on the subject, guiding you through Canon's Speedlite system, from off-camera portable flash to professional studio lighting. It covers the fundamentals of flash metering technology, discusses key lighting concepts, and documents a wide range of Canon and third-party equipment. Universal flash accessories, studio gear, and radio triggers are all thoroughly covered.
The book is lavishly illustrated with diagrams that demonstrate important functions and lighting arrangements, and inspiring photos that show sophisticated flash techniques. Though tailored for users of Canon EOS cameras, owners of other camera systems will find much valuable information as well.
So, whether you're just getting started with flash, or you've picked up the bug for off-camera lighting from such popular websites as Strobist.com, or you're making the leap into advanced studio work, Mastering Canon EOS Flash Photography is your in-depth resource.
Includes a foreword by David Hobby, noted photojournalist and founder of Strobist.com.
