Having recently got the Sony A300 I have found that the manual is, to my mind, somewhat lacking. So I have been looking into purchasing a book.
Someone has recommended
Sony DSLR a300/a350 with Other (Magic Lantern Guides) by Peter K. Burian
but I have also come across a few people recommending
The Complete Guide to Sony's Alpha 300 and 350 Digital SLR Cameras by Gary Friedman, which is downloadable.
I just wondered if anyone knew of either of these, or would there be any other recommendations?
Many thanks
Marcia
 
I just got my A300 and downloaded Gary Friedmans book I find it really good, its more like a beefed up manual but its really good.
 
Hi i picked up Sony DSLR a300/a350 Magic Lantern Guide and have found this to be very good, I have not looked at any othe books as this was the first one i found.
 
Thank you both for your replies. Much appreciated!
So at the moment it's one all between the magic lantern book, and Friedmans download!:)
Has anyone else got any thoughts?
Thank you
Marcia

i'm thinking on gary friedmans, just not sure on download.

Another vote for the Friedman PDF. Got one and it's superb. You can't go wrong. No problems with the download either. :smashin:
 
Friedman :smashin: Good thing with the download, you can have it in lots of places, I have a copy on my home PC, work PC and portable harddrive.

I have both and i can read the book anywhere without needing a pc:smashin:

just checked and its this book i have

It's certainly looking like Friedman is the way to go.
