This guide was written with two kinds of photographer in mind: The new camera owner and the mobile phone photographer transitioning to a larger format camera. It introduces the reader to the principles of photography in easy to read non-technical language.

Many manuals describe in great detail how to change settings, navigate menus and the many different functions of the camera. However, many fail to explain the general principles of photography and when to use the different modes and functions. This companion book bridges that gap and should be read alongside your camera manual.
