Mastering the Canon EOS R100

Whether you are upgrading from a smartphone, moving from a compact camera, or returning to photography after years away, this book gives you a clear path from the fundamentals to more intentional and creative photography. Instead of simply explaining what the camera can do, it focuses on understanding when and why to use different settings and techniques.

You will learn how to become comfortable with the EOS R100's controls, menus, shooting modes, lens system, and basic setup. From there, the book guides you through the foundations of photography, including the exposure triangle, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, exposure, focus, and the effects of light.

Using aperture to control depth of field and create background separation
