That's because it's so, so, so verbose, it's like ploughing through a Russian novel. Did I mention it's verbose? Just opening the book to a random section offers gems that can be used in a "How Not to Write a User Guide" textbook.Here's an example from the self-timer section, "The self-timer is useful for occasions when you need to be the photographer and also appear in a group photograph, because you can set the RX100 on a tripod, set the timer for 10 seconds, and then move around to place yourself in the group before the shutter clicks. The self-timer also is helpful in other situations, though, such as whenever you are taking a picture under conditions in which you don’t want to cause blur by jiggling the camera as you press the shutter button. For example, when you’re taking a macro shot very close to the subject, the focusing can be very critical, and any bump to the camera could throw off the focus. Using the self-timer means the camera has a chance to settle down after the shutter button is pressed, before the image is actually recorded. Once you select the self-timer option, you are presented with two choices: ten seconds and two seconds. When the self-timer option is highlighted, just press the left or right direction button on the control wheel to choose between these options. Once you have made this selection, the self-timer icon will appear in the upper left corner of the display, with the chosen number of seconds (10 or 2) displayed next to the icon, as shown in Figure 4-15."I mean, come on! The whole book is like that, I found myself constantly skipping paragraphs to get to the parts that matter. Would have been a great guide if it was pared down to 60 - 70 pages, which can easily be done. 4 stars for effort and thoroughness though, it actually covers a lot of material and contains a lot of information. (It has too many notes, just take out a few and it'll be perfect!) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best RX-100 Doc I could find so far. *by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2021* Sony's doc and the many online vids are good at listing all the RX-100 features, but the book explains when and how to best use them. And also which ones can just be forgotten about, based on the writer's experience.Would have given it only 4 stars as there are still a few cases where it seems there are several ways to achieve the same results but not always clear explanations on what might differentiate the methods.But giving it 5 stars as it is far superior to any other reference material I could find on the RX-100.Some complain it is verbose, yes it is at times, but still very easy to skim through and jump over whatever section the reader might already be familiar with. Best is to highlight the sections on features that might be a good fit for your usage as you read, as the verbosity makes it a bit difficult to quickly find the reference again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tells you how it's done! *by H***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2013* Sony should include this book with every RX100! I would have been lost without it - or at the least very limited in the things I've tried. I learn of a different setting and then run out to try it. My wonderful wife thinks I'm quite mad and who's to blame her? On the other hand she's been impressed with the results - which is why I bought the camera and book to begin with.I gave it only four stars as a matter of principle - nothing is perfect and ratings shouldn't suggest otherwise - and I have a couple nits to pick. This book, by design I think, is not to be read cover to cover but rather to help you find sections covering photographic situations - a reference manual rather than a "how to" book. To do that you first have to learn all the ways in which settings are set/changed, and that's where I flounder. Blame me and not the book but when I find a solution I have to plow back to learn what I'm doing in the first place. If there were only some device/chart/schematic/what-have-you to tell you what everything should be set at I would do much better. Again, blame me and not the book, but this is a rating of how the book works FOR ME.If you buy the camera - a nifty if sometimes awkward device - you will need this book.post script - After having the book around for a while (it's 4/28/'13 today) I find I'm using it more than I expected and it has answered questions I hadn't even thought of yet. I'll give the book four and three quarter's stars. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/6567179-photographers-guide-to-the-sony-dsc-rx100](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/6567179-photographers-guide-to-the-sony-dsc-rx100) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-08-07*
