Reviews
This is a very well done, clear concise book which does an excellent job of showing and explaining the many features of this camera. I am not a tech-savvy person and I was quite disappointed with the 'Getting Started' manual that came with the camera. I was also not wild about having to go online for a more complete manual or Youtube for explanatory 'clips'. This book, which is spiral bound, printed on strong stock paper, and is straight forward in its layout, has gotten me off the ground and running with my COOLPIX P7800. This camera has so many features (both menu and button/dial) that I am afraid it would have taken me months to become proficient with it without the help of this book.I very highly recommend David Busch's excellent guide book for anyone interested in getting the most out of their P7800.
