Customer Reviews

waste of money
This publication could be applied to any DSLR, minimum explanation of camera workings, less comprehensive than owners manual,loads of guff about picture taking using almost the full array of Sony/Minolta lenses,
who can afford or carry that amount of equipment. Rubbish.

Camera Guide
Clearly written and easy to understand. More helpful than the basic manual even for finding finding all the functions.
Good value for money
