This book in the wonderful Magic Lantern series covers the full functions of the Canon EOS Elan II and IIe cameras in a non-technical, conversational style. It's a quick and easy read and after you get through this book, you will fully understand all the features of this great camera, from basics as how the authors recommend holding the camera to features like the auto-focus and understanding the Creative modes to advanced topics such as how to set multiple exposures and auto-exposure bracketing. It also describes the usage and features of a large number of the most commonly-used Canon lenses, flashes and accessories that will work with this camera. (This last part is why I give it only a '9' because, although very informative, it reads almost as close to a sales brochure as a usage guide.) If you own this camera, this is the best ~$20 you will spend on it.
