As for the rest of the settings, they’re all right here in this article.

Use the same settings that I’ve described above.

In Amazon it has a “look inside” feature so you can see if it is what you want.

I don’t know of any websites that specifically do what you want. There are several camera-[specific books out there. I took a quick look through this one looks like it might be pretty friendly.

im very very new to the DSLR game and very interested in this project. The only problem i have is i have no idea about the terminology! I have an old 350d with instructions but it may as well be written in Martian. Do you know of any websites that give “idiots guides”?
