This handbook explains how to take a picture that looks exactly like you visualised it when you pressed the button. Its aim is to help new photographers understand their camera equipment and to start shooting visually meaningful images as soon as possible, rather than overloading them with technically confusing detail.
Concepts and techniques are illustrated with full-colour and black and white photographs and diagrams. Troubleshooting panels will help pre-empt the usual mistakes and fast-track beginners to get the results they want.
