The two Chris's have done a great job for the new SLR owner by introducing them to all of the real-world differences they'll face when upgrading from a point-and-shoot camera. The illustrations echo the kinds of images the newbie SLR owner can reasonably expect from their new camera. --Shutterbug Magazine
