yvon's K-3 book is available

RockvilleBob · 08-03-2014, 11:56 PM

I am tempted to buy the book just for auto focus information that Pentax/Ricoh is woefully negligent providing. How extensive is the explanation about the various auto focus options with examples of what options to use in different situations?

I appreciate the feed back about this ebook, I opened the add for it just the other day. Did not purchase it because there was not enough information and examples of what the book has to offer. I have asked other friends from a local photo club about the book and have not received a reply back as for now. I would also like a hard copy or paperback.

I only print sections of special interest to me.

Today I was reading this Forum and I decided to buy the book for the Pentax K 3
3 years ago I brought the book for Pentax K x

Both are great books

I found this thread. I too am looking for a book with more information than the manual.
Checked out Yvon's web site and got turned off by the lack of security.
I don't enter extensive personal information unless it's an https site.
Can anyone shed any light on my concerns?

If you trust it more, they are available on Amazon: PENTAX DSLRs: Pentax E-books from Yvon Bourque are now available on Amazon.com

not available on Amazon UK unfortunately but not sure how much help it would be as there is a plethora of info on youtube or just sit and play with your camera more. Remember seeing an article by a lady photographer and she said the first thing she did with a new camera was to read the manual, each section over and over with camera in hand until it sunk in. Lets be honest its not rocket science is it
