App Detail » Master your Canon D-SLR camera – a beginner's video guide

App Description

The ultimate beginner's guide to getting to grips with your Canon EOS digital SLR camera.

Ideal for those who are using an SLR camera for the first time, or after a long break, this guide shows you what all the key controls do, and takes you through all the important menu options. At the end of it you’ll be more confident and more knowledgeable about your camera.

Expert presenter Claire Gillo guides you through the options, buttons and controls over a series of short no-nonsense video lessons.

Unlike other guides, this is aimed specifically at Canon EOS and Canon Rebel owners – so that the tutorials are tailored specifically to the controls found on what is the world's most popular make of digital SLR.
