I bought your K-30 book, Yvon - basically a re-telling of the manual, but I like it a lot! :-)

IF YOU HAVE A TABLET OR SMARTPHONE, THE E-BOOKS CAN BE DOWNLOADED ON PRACTICALLY ANY DEVICE. IMAGINE WITH A SMART PHONE, YOU CAN BRING ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS WITH YOU ANYWHERE YOU SHOOT, FOR REFERENCE AT ANY TIME.

What format are these eBooks in? PDF? Kindle? iBook? Other?

Are they password protected, where I would have to remember a password every time I started up the eBook?

Password protected PDF, Tom - at least it was the first time I opened it.

The e-books are all PDF format, which should work on all devices. My early e-books were password protected but I stopped using passwords a few years ago. I think the K10D, K100D and K20D were password protected.

Best Regards,

Yvon Bourque

P.S. By giving me your email, I can send you a sample e-book for the DSLR you are interrested in.

Thank you for the clarification. Not having to deal with cryptic passwords is a big plus in the field.

Just one other quick question, are these purchased eBooks transferable? If I were to sell the camera, can the eBook be given/transferred with the camera to the new buyer, to enhance the sale? Or, must the eBook remain with the original purchaser?

Just comparing with an actual physical manual/book, which can be sold or transferred.

The e-book can be given with the camera only, but not sold. All the e-books are copyrighted and have a unique ISBN Number to protect my intellectual rights..

The Pentax K-S2 was officially announced today and will be available in March. I have to get to work and write the e-book for the K-S2. It's going to be a very popular camera.

Just bought your book recently. Only about a 1/4 of the way through, but what a treat! I was getting a headache trying to read the User manual, but I am able to follow your book much easier, and learning way more.
Great book!
