Book Reviews of Magic Lantern Guides: Pentax K200D

Book Review: Useful for newcomers
Summary: 3 Stars

Having read several reviews of this book prior to purchasing, I was expecting a very useful reference and "how-to" guide to photography with my Pentax K200D. After reading the book cover to cover, it feels like this author/publisher has a template for many cameras, and simply fills in the specifics for your camera, rather than the book being really dedicated to your camera. I did learn several useful bits which were not clear at all in the manual, but I would have learned them on my own using the camera. If you are new to photography, this book may help, as the author does explain fundamentals in clear language. If you have ever used an SLR or DSLR before, you can probably figure it all out reading Pentax's included manual and takings lots of shots while playing with settings.

Summary of Magic Lantern Guides: Pentax K200D

With easy-to-understand tips and advice, this Magic Lantern Guide will have owners of the new Pentax K200D taking great pictures in no time. Learn which file and resolution settings give the best image quality from the camera's impressive 10.2 megapixel CCD image sensor. Find out how to get sharp, blur-free photos with the camera's autofocus system. Discover when to use AUTO Pict, and which Scene modes work best for various subjects. Or try the more advanced creative modes to freeze action or isolate your subject for pictures that pop. Finally, hints on using the camera's built-in flash and choosing accessory flash units and lenses help make mastering digital SLR photography fun, easy, and rewarding.
