However. after years of muddling through with photography in general. and flash photography on occasion. I am delighted to be able to finally learn and to put into practice what I am learning. through reading this excellent book.As a Canon devotee. a manual dedicated to that specific brand is a worthwhile addition to my library. The breakdown for each Speedlite model. is especially clear and well laid out.However. I also purchased The Speedliters Handbook - Sly Arena.The two books together have given me information overloadhellip;which although this publication compares favourably. if I was to select just one reference manual. Sly Areas would be my choice. hellip;hellip;just.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good guide; light on the 600 EX-RT updatesBy Bob M.Overall the guide had good coverage on all aspects of flash photography--especially with Canon Speedlight system. I got the third edition because I had purchased a 600 EX-RT and was looking for the typical fireld guide material that offers more than the users manual. Heres where my expectations were left less than fulfilled. It seems that this edition was put together fairly quickly and it was designed to contain just enough new (600) info to justify an edition upgrade. When you see that amount of material specific to older versions of the Speedlight and compare that to whats included for the 600 series. the 600 series falls short. Dont get me wrong--the other material can be translated upward to 600 flash terminology/technology. and the overall Speedlight flash photography material is good. just a little weak on the 600.16 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Surprisingly good bookBy CustomerI recently switched from Nikon to Canon. I do portraiture and weddings for pay. amateur work for my church and a little family stuff. I made the switch to Canon because it was time to upgrade from my D300 and I liked the Canon 5d III better than the Nikon D800. I am pretty familiar with DLSRs. The 5d is my fourth purchase but I bought the Lowerie Field Guide to the 5d just to make sure I wasnt missing anything. Lowrie did a nice job with her book and she recommended the Corsentino guide for the EX 600-RT flash. I took her advice since I had found the Canon Manual ponderous and I couldnt find anything of value to understand the capability of the ST-E3-RT.The Corsentino Guide was just what I needed. Straight easy to understand and lots of explanatory pictures. His detail on the ST-E3-RT sold me on getting one which I ordered that day from .I am very familiar with the Nikon flash system on and off camera. Corsentinos book takes the Canon system from A to Z which means there was a lot of redundancy from my point of view but his approach and writing style was excellent. enough so that I read the book cover to cover even though it covered things with which I was already very familiar.
