Canon EOS 6D: 'From Snapshots to Great Shots'
By Colby Brown 2013 (Hard Copy)

I use a Canon EOS 6D, as a dedicated full frame body, for landscape, low light and event photography (paired mainly with the Canon EF 16-35 f/4L IS USM and EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM lenses). 

This well-illustrated book became a personal companion for a deeper understanding of the Canon EOS 6D's advanced features, high ISO capabilities, focus system and a general reference guide (apart from the Canon user manual).

This book is highly recommended for current or prospective Canon EOS 6D full frame owners: Its an insightful blend of the camera's features, photographic instruction and general / advanced reference guide.


Canon EOS 6D: Basic to Advanced Photography Tutorials
Expect detailed explanations and demonstrations of the Canon EOS 6D's general to advanced features supplemented with detailed photographic fundamentals, instruction and sample images - with detailed EXIF data: Aperture / ISO / Shutter Speed information from in-camera together with selected lens focal length.

Like the other books  in the 'From Snapshots to Great Shots" range the reader will be guided through various basic photographic performance requirements to advanced exposure techniques (using Aperture / ISO / Shutter Speed) for application in the Canon 6D's Creative Zone (P / Av / Tv / M modes).

The 240+ pages of the Canon EOS 6D 'Snapshots to Great Shots' are superbly organized with the author's expert photographic knowledge, skills and many practical camera / photography demonstrations. Each chapter is a well-structured combination of the Canon EOS 6D's settings / features (with images) and detailed explanations and demonstration on how to achieve similar shots.
