Best book on the Canon 5DMkII

[RAF62]

What is the best Canon alternative book on the 5DMkII ?
I have been advised that there is a new David Busch Guide out in September.
Also heard his books are exellent so should I forego all others and wait till September?
Thanks
Ron

Ron,

A good informative book is the Canon EOS 5D MkII "The expanded guide" by Andy Stansfield.

Full of info and techniques and the best bit is each function is described in detail with shooting tips. Also includes advice on accessories and lenses.

Comes complete with WB cards and 18% Grey cards as pull-outs.

Bought though EOS magazine.

Slàinte,

Malkie

I like the Magic Lantern Guides by Lark Books. They're generally well written, well illustrated, and small enough to fit in a side pocket of a camera bag. They have one on the Canon EOS 5D Mark II. You can order it from Amazon.com ($13.50) or Amazon.co.uk (£8.75). The ISBN is 978-1600595363.

+1 for the Magic Lantern Guides

You would think a publisher of a magazine called EOS Magazine would be able to produce some good publications ... Hint hint

I like the book

Digital Field Guide for Canon EOS 5D-MKII

the book has a wealth of knowledge in regards to the features, how to use them and what best scenarios to use them in.

for $12 shipped to your front door (purchased from ebay or amazon.com) you can't go wrong with what this book can/will teach you.
