You bought the camera because it's tiny and elegant and easy to use (and, oh yes, it takes great pictures, too!). So why would you spend $20 on a book that's several times bigger than the camera itself--in other words, too large to carry, too expensive to languish on the shelf, and too detailed to provide the at-a-glance guidance you seek. But if that book were under 50 pages, small enough to slip into your coat pocket, and (best of all!) only $5--well, that would be perfect! And perfect this book is for the smart Coolpix user who needs nothing more than a quick visual reference to the camera's most common functions! Each page of this tight, bright, four-color guide features a full-page visual, step-by-step instructions, and perhaps a warning or tip at the bottom of the page. Nothing extraneous, just the all-important basics: shooting techniques, Coolpix functions and menus, instructions for transferring photos and creating common effects, and more.
