    Canon Rebel T2 guide book

    I bought a Rebel T2 in September 2004 (my very first SLR)....in this camera shop where I bought the camera they had guide books by a company called Magic Lantern, they had them for all cameras except the T2......the salesman said it was still a new camera they probably hadnt made one yet, to check back in about a month, I did and still no book well in the meantime I had major back surgery in December so I didnt feel like using the camera for a few months.....then recently I went to the same shop and still no books on the T2....So I looked online and I found a site called ckcpower.com it said they had them, even had a picture of the book and a review , I thought great I found it but at the very bottom of the ad it said " available 09-2005....My wife and I are going on our 1st anniversary to New Oleans in October , and I really wanted to be doing really well at taking pics with my camera before we went, does anyone know of any other company that makes guide books for these cameras or any others ideas......I try really hard to learn it but all I have ever used is a point and shoot and honestly it is all kind of strange to me...its kind of like sitting in the cockpit of a plane wondering where to put the key...any help would be much appreciated....THANKS

    Suggestion

    You might try the Magic Lanter for the Rebel Ti or the Rebel 2K - here's the Borders (books) link to the Ti - which the T2 replaces - they are similar enough for you to glean some help from this book IMO.
