 Good book for a great product August 13, 2008
Donald Hawley (usa)
This book is a great help in showing all the features of the A100. I just wish Sony had such a book with their cameras. I would tell everyone who buys this camera to get the book. I just hope they come up with books for the new Sony products.

A perfect companion to the Sony A100 February 17, 2008

This book is a good companion for the Sony A100 DSLR, it allows you to quickly learn the controls, features and settings that will let you get the most from the camera and accessories.
There are many color figures showing the settings and their effects on the photographs.
The beginning of the book is a quick overview of the camera's controls, features, and modes to get you started. Once you have mastered the fundamentals, the next sections focus on specific modes and settings, with examples showing how they affect the photos that you take.
The book explains basic photographic concepts and how to apply them using the cameras features. It lists most situations that you are likely to encounter, including sections on infrared, product, and waterfall photography. As well as how to setup and use the camera's features to get the best results.
As an added benefit to this guide, there is a chapter covering use of the software that comes with the camera, and other tools available to make adjustments and catalog your photographs.
Overall this book covers all the information that you will need to know to get the most out of your Sony A100. In the end you will find yourself with a whole new level of knowledge about your camera as well as the inspiration to go out and take more photos.
A Must-Have Guide February 8, 2008

I purchased this guide several months after I began using my new Sony A-100 DSLR. I am sorry I waited. The manual packed with the camera is complete and accurate. It covers the technical aspects of the camera, whereas this guide covers both the technical and the techniques in getting the best results with unique features of the Sony A-100. This guid is in constant use by me. Old Guy In Arizona
