This review is from: Magic Lantern Guides: SONY DSLR A200 (Paperback)
As a person who is learning DSLR photography with his new Sony Alpha A200, I decided to buy some books, one of which is Magic Lantern Guides. I didn't know what to expect because there was not much information about this book online, and I haven't owned a book from this series before either.
The book is in Black&White, size of a thick booklet that you would expect to get with any fairly complicated electronic. It will help you understand the every feature the A200 has. It is kind of an expended version of the original Instruction Manual with more words and examples. I wish Sony included this book with the camera. On the other hand, if you already know some SLR photography, or own other DSLR books, this book may feel too repetitive since many concepts explained in the book apply to any SLR usage in general. In other words this book may not add too much to your knowledge. If you are new to DSLR, you bought your A200 recently, and if you wish the Instruction Manual was much more descriptive, then this book is for you.

I used to do a lot of 35mm shots, and then went to digital. I recently bought a Sony A200 DSLR and found the Instruction Manual left a few things out. Sony can not put it all in the instruction manual.
So I searched around for some additional information and ran across the Magic Lantern Guide. Just like Outdoor Photographer says on the back.... "Packed with diagrams, instructions and Tips". They forgot to say better bound that the instruction manual, detailed pictures, larger type, well organized and more details of the menu system for the camera and a whole lot easier to read. Also worth the cost. I throw this book in a plastic bag, in the backpack and take it with me. |
