If you own a Pentax K200D and want to know absolutely everything about this camera, then purchase this book. It is easy to read, organized and I haven't had one question about working with my camera that could not be answered by this book. The author's genuine love of photography is obvious. Not only does he guide you in how to work the many features of the camera, he explains why the feature is beneficial and how to get the best picture possible. The guide provided with the camera teaches you how to work the camera and it's many features but does not explain why you will need them and when.

This is an excellent guide for those of us new to the digital SLR and even a review, I would think, for those more adept. It treats in detail all of the features of the K200D and offers sound advice on the use of those features. It goes on to add some good trouble-shooting tips as well.

If you want an easy to read but comprehensive guide to the Pentax K200D then this is the book to buy. After buying the Magic Latern book, which in itself is better than the owners manual supplied with the camera, I felt that I wanted something more comprehensive. This book by David Busch appears to be more detailed and easier to read, it is a larger book with color photos whereas the Magic Lantern book is about the same size as the owners manual. If you only want to buy one book to supplement the owners manual then this should be it. Well written and suitable for beginners and more advanced photographers.
