Sony A7II owners/users a guide question
May 9, 2015 11:52:06 #
Just got my new A7II, still owning a Canon 5DIII which is for sale now, I am thoroughly impressed with the image quality right out of the box of this A7, I owned all the upper end cameras of Olympus/Nikon, Canon but this one is something else, however:
The Camera manual if the most dreadful peace of crap ever written!
Any Nikon or Canon manual is better than this.
Even the online stuff I found so far sucks.
Is there a book available similar to the David Bush line of guides?

Search Amazon.com. They have a huge selection of books on the Sony A7 series. Sony is notoriously bad when it comes to user guide / manual, they stink.

I was also going to recommend Friedman. I have his book on the a77ii and think it is superb.

^^^EXACTLY!
Any Sony/Olympus/Fujifilm owner should look to Friedman FIRST for a 3rd party manual. :thumbup:
He is the BEST manual writer in the business, bar none. And his ebooks are worth TWICE the price....

I agree with you on Sony's guide Last year I could not find anything and ended up buying David Busch's book on A77 a lot of difference but it helped. Had I not been new to digital photography and thought this the norm , my buying decision would definitely have been swayed.

Colin, I have several Busch books. They literally do not compare to Gary Friedman's books. SERIOUSLY.
Friedman's books are the best on the market bar none. :thumbup:

I downloaded the Friedman book on the Sony A77II as suggested . I love it!!! I have a problem The pdf file will not copy to my other 2 computers and I cannot make a dvd for backup. Is the file locked or more likely I just do not know what I am doing any help would be gratefully recieved.

His files are definitely not locked.... that's one of his selling points; that you can copy it to multiple devices.
That's exactly what I did with My A77II ebook.
If you can't figure out what's going on, email him. He'll walk you through the process. :thumbup:
