I have this book, and find it very useful. The Canon owner's manual tells you how to set the controls and settings on the camera, but a good third-party book like this one, also tells you WHY to use certain settings and WHICH ones to choose according to your situation. This explanation of the REASONS for things is what sets these books apart from the more basic owner's manuals.
I have now also bought David Busch's book for this camera. His books are the epitome of what third-party camera books should be.

I first bought David D. Busch's Canon Guide to DSLR. I started reading it and felt like I wasn't able to grasp what he was saying. I'm completely new to photography and needed someone to explain the basics first; ISO, exposure, etc. David's book used these terms without first explaining them. I found myself going back to the glossary (thank God he had one) to look up the meaning of words. If you aren't completely new to photography, this book might be good, it seem very in depth.
So I went on Amazon and bought this dummies book. I have never read a book by these writers so I didn't know what to expect. I was very pleased. The book reads like a textbook - which I want when I'm trying to learn something new! As soon as they use a photography related word, they explain it briefly, and tell you where you can find more information about it in the book (if you wanted to skip to that topic). The only thing I wish it had (which several text books these days do) is the terms called out in the sidebar with a definition - incase you need to remember what a term means again quickly. The book does remind you throughout the way what things are, which is nice.
I would highly recommend this book!
