SynopsisThe Sony DSC-RX100 has been hailed by reviewers and general photographers as one of the highest-quality compact digital cameras ever produced. With its larger-than-normal image sensor, superior image quality, and impressive array of features for creative photography, this camera has attracted a large and dedicated following in the photography community. However, the camera does not come with a printed manual, or even a PDF manual that can readily be printed for reference. So, until now, it has been difficult for users of the camera to find answers to their questions about the use of the camera's many controls, menus, and features. In this new book, White Knight Press has provided users of the RX100 with a comprehensive guide to all operations, features, menus, and controls of this amazing camera. Using a patient, tutorial-like approach, the book provides guidance to beginning and intermediate photographers not only about how to accomplish things with the RX100, but when and why to use the camera's many features. The book does not assume any specialized knowledge by the reader as it explains topics such as autofocus, manual focus, depth of field, aperture priority, shutter priority, exposure compensation, white balance, and ISO sensitivity. The book also provides full details of the camera's numerous menu options for playback, setup, and customizing the operation of the various buttons and other controls. The book's more than 300 photographs, most of them in full color, illustrate the RX100's controls, shooting screens, and menus. The photographs also provide examples of the various types of photographs that can be taken using the many creative settings of the camera, including the Photo Creativity settings, which let the photographer alter the color processing of images; the Scene shooting mode, with settings that are optimized for various subjects, including landscapes, portraits, and action shots; the Creative Style and Picture Effect menu options, which offer dramatic options for altering the appearance of images; and the camera's strong array of features for continuous shooting and shooting in dim lighting.

  • Everything you need to know and more that you are glad to become aware of that you otherwise might not.

    I'm a fan of the HX series of Sony pocketable cameras. When the next step came along I bought the RX100 with the added multi programed and program enhanced manual refinements along with a segment leading large one inch sensor. This camera can produce images with less noise and capture images in low light without flash in an outstanding way and in a pocket size body. However, one can get lost easily in the great many choices that are possible and miss better possibly better setting choices . This book is a great help. It's laid out in chapters giving instruction and advice while explaining the use of features you are interested in knowing about. 378 pages, including index, seems a lot of information about a single small camera. No stone was left unturned by the author, and at the same time, all information is straight forward and simple to understand. If you have a RX100 you won't go wrong buying this book.
