I purchased the Nikon Coolpix 5000 recently and instantly became frustrated with the factory intruction manual. Not sure if it is true, but I heard that it is first written in japanese, and then translated into english. No wonder I had a hard time with the manual.
Luckily, just prior to my trip to Italy, I found the book by Dennis Curtain. He helped me immensley by walking me through each feature of the camera, and how it is relevant to taking pictures. It is not so much a how to take good pictures, but how to use a sometimes complicated camera. Especially helpful is the shortcuts he put on the CD ROM. These were great to print out and put in my pocket as quick reference guide.
The camera takes such great pictures and I am grateful this book existed for me to take advantage of. Otherwise, I would have been stuck with just the automatic mode of my camera.

A very well put together explanation about the features and functions of the Coolpix 5000.
But because it is available as a digital product why don't you offer it as such and save overseas buyers the cost and delay caused by postage.
