How to use a Canon Eos Elan camera?

I have a Canon camera that I would like to find out how all the dials and such work. I have the book but am the type that needs “show me” way. Any ideas on where to go to find out how to use it the best way? Thanks!

I’m a show me person too, and I’m sorry to say, but unless you hire someone to go with you every time you take a picture, you’ll need to do some reading. First I would just play around with it a bit with no film to get familiar with the camera. In manual mode, the dial on the top next to the shutter button controls your shutter speed, while the dial on the back of the camera controls your f-stop. When I got my 20d I knew the basics, but was lost as far as the specifics of the camera. Since then, I have read a few books and know almost everything about it now. You don’t have to read a whole book from front to back either. I just put a manual in my camera bag and every time I needed to know something, I referred to my manual. Over time, you’ll become more and more familiar with the camera. I like the Magic Lantern Guides a lot, but I’m not sure if they make them for the Elan. Check eBay and Amazon.
