I've tried to make this book more organised and through large, detailed,
color images show you where all the buttons and dials are and the
accompanying explanations as to what they do. I've purposely avoided
giving detailed information on how to take specific types of images such
as “travel pictures”, “sports pictures”. Instead I have tried to concentrate
on giving you the tips and techniques for using the features of the
Panasonic Lumix FZ200 to take any kind of image you want.
If you are looking for specific instructions on how to take a particular type
of picture of say a racing car hurtling down the pit straights then there are
literally tens of books out there which will teach you just that.
This guide
will concentrate on teaching you how to select the best ISO,
autofocus
mode, shutter speed, aperture to take an image of any sports in any
lighting conditions.
This guide is not just a technical rewrite of the advanced user manual that
came with the camera on the CD-ROM. I know some people will just
spend a few minutes browsing through this guide and see maybe some
similarity of the entries and decry it as such without really understanding
the differences. Yes you will see similar entries as in the advanced user
manual but these will be the generic, or basic,
instructions for entering
menus etc. After all there are not many ways of
expressing for example
“hold down the shutter button half way to lock the focus and exposure”.
This guide is truly aimed at Panasonic Bridge camera veterans who have
upgraded their camera and also to complete newcomers to digital
photography. Both of these can be overwhelmed by the sheer complexity
the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 can offer, yet underwhelmed by the total lack
of instructions contained within the user manuals.
