A Short Course in Canon PowerShot G2 Photography Book/eBook

This book/eBook package is you guide to getting more interesting and creative photos with your Canon PowerShot G2 digital camera. This cross between a very readable generic camera guide and a photography 101 course discusses every available procedure, command, and photographic technique in a clear, well-illustrated style. It will help you quickly master your camera so you can start getting the kinds of photos you hope for. The book is printed in black & white and has a well-liked spiral binding that lets the book lie flat or be folded back. The accompanying eBook on a CD disc is a full-color version of the same book in Adobe's popular PDF format. It can be read on a PC or Mac using the included Acrobat reader or any current Web browser. The CD also includes trial versions of a number of the author's favorite programs.
Customer Review: Simply, not worth the cost.
This is a very expensive book for something that looks like it was put together in someone's basement. The interior pages look like they were photocopied using a mediocre black and white copier. This obviously doesn't work well when you are trying to show people what their camera can do. I'm used to paying good money for a full color, hardcover book and this book is the complete opposite. Secondly, the book doesn't really go beyond describing and re-describing the camera's functions (all of which are explained in the camera's manual & available on Canon's website). I was hoping it would go into more detail. For example, instead of telling me that I need to turn this lever to this mode to take such a picture, I thought the book would explain why I would want to set the camera in this mode versus this one for a particular kind of picture. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this mode? What other modes might work just as well? Et cetera. The book does not answer these questions. I find the book to be a rehash of the Canon manual with lots of repetition probably used to beef the book up physically versus filling it with quality content. I've had my G2 for about a year now and I think the best way to learn using it is to experiment. Learn about the different settings in the camera's manual and then try them out with flash, without flash, selecting different white balance, manual vs. auto focus. That's the only way you are really going to find out what the amazing G2 can do. And, if you still feel like you need a book to hold your hand through the process try getting a general, less expensive digital camera guide that will go into more detail.
Customer Review: Very good overview, combined with techniques
A very helpful and usable manual. Even tho it's produced rather cheaply (spiral-bound, B&W), it really gives an excellent short course in photography as it relates to the feature-packed PowerShot G2. The manual that comes with the G2 is very well written, but doesn't really go into detail about how to get the pictures you really want, especially under difficult situations. This book definitely fills the gap. The camera was a bit intimidating to me, at first. Now it's not. I probably will print the PDF out in color, however. That's my major gripe.

Opteka Close-Up Set (+1, +2, and +4) with 10x Macro Lens for Canon PowerShot A570 A590 IS Digital Camera

Cameras fitted with normal lenses do not permit us to move closer than a certain minimum distance from the object being photographed. The Close-Up lens, which is simply mounted in the front of our normal taking lens, permits the taking of close-ups and also makes possible the photography of details which would be quite impossible without using the Close-Up lens.The easy to use solution for getting extra close. These lenses enable you to get much closer than the minimum focus of the standard camera lens - as close as 4 inches from the subject. Ideal for cataloging small items and focusing on details.
