It was a good book to show what could be done, but less on how to capture those exact types of shots. I was looking for a bit more of "try this for this" rather than the background on aperture, ect.

The camera that this is aimed as has long been discontinued now, but it is still an easy read. It explains the workings of the camera clearly, and doesn't presuppose that you're an electronics genius or the next David Bailey when it comes to using the camera.

Using this as a reference guide rather than reading it straight through. The tdetails are all explained very well. Lots of good info for my model.
