The manual for the Canon EOS Rebel T4i is 363 pages...and there 3 more skinny manuals...gonna need some serious reading room time  :)


/e  I read pretty fast though...so gimme a few days :)


theres not much to canons eos rebel series. if you already have film background just hop into the AV or TV semi automatic modes. if you dont/cant remember hop into full manual and play around with it.

if you are having problems manually focusing i suggest a little exercise of placing three colored cups on the table one behind each other but a bit to the left of each other. then practice focusing in on a specific cup and taking the photo. this will help you train your eyes to focus again.



theres some other menus in there that i dont even touch yet. one of them that are interesting though is one for extended epsoure night photography. i forgot what the name was but it basically keeps your mirror open so and then reads data then stops reading data when youre done so that your mirror vibrations dont effect your image. coupled with a remote and a tripod you can take some great star photos.

It's an IN-GAME coupon....I assume for once you have the game...the coupon gives you $40 credit IN each game for microtransactions.

BUT...all that aside...I am no done with upgrading ...prolly forever, hell I now have a DSLR to feed and care for. lol

I just got the book Windows 7 Annoyances, and it's almost TWICE as thick as Windows XP annoyances. :D


Win XP = 564 pages of annoyances, Win 7 = 697 pages of annoyances ....at the rate this is going, no one will even be able to lift, Win 8 Annoyances :P
