This book is a text-only guide to the operation of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II digital camera. It is a shortened version of Photographer's Guide to the Sony DSC-RX100 II, published in 2013. The original book contains hundreds of color photographs, which make it quite expensive to print. This text-only edition has had almost all of the illustrations removed, and those few that are remain printed in black and white, in order to reduce the printing cost and, therefore, the purchase price. This revised version contains almost all of the text of the original book, though it omits some introductory remarks about the camera and other information that does not explain the use of the camera. It also does not include discussions about illustrations that do not appear in this edition of the book. The purpose of this edition is to provide a less-expensive alternative for readers who want a printed reference guide to the features and operation of the camera at a reduced price. Because this volume contains very few illustrations, it may be difficult to follow some of the discussions. Therefore, the publisher will provide a free copy of the downloadable PDF version of the original book, with all of its color illustrations, to any purchaser of this text-only volume who requests one. Details of this offer are included in the book's Introduction.

With the release of the DSC-RX100 II camera, Sony has built upon the success of the earlier RX100 model, adding a hot shoe, tilting LCD screen, Wi-Fi capability, upgraded digital sensor, and several other enhancements. White Knight Press, which published a widely praised guide to the RX100, has released this new guide book that addresses all of the new features of the RX100 II and includes a full discussion of the many advanced features that are common to both camera models. With the publication of Photographer’s Guide to the Sony DSC-RX100 II, author Alexander White provides users of the RX100 II with a guide to all operations, features, menus, and controls of the camera. Using a patient, tutorial-like approach, the book shows beginning and intermediate photographers not only how to accomplish things with the RX100 II, but when and why to use the camera’s many features. The book does not assume specialized knowledge by the reader as it explains topics such as autofocus, manual focus, depth of field, aperture priority, shutter priority, exposure compensation, white balance, and ISO sensitivity. The book provides full details of the camera’s numerous shooting modes as well as its many menu options for shooting, playback, setup, and special effects. The book includes full coverage of the new features of the RX100 II, including the use of the camera’s built-in capability to transfer images and videos over a wireless network and to allow the camera to be controlled remotely by a smartphone or tablet. The book includes approximately 400 photographs, most in full color, which illustrate the camera’s controls, shooting screens, and menus. The images also provide examples of the types of photographs that can be taken using the many creative settings of the camera, including the Photo Creativity settings, which let the photographer alter the color processing of images; the Scene shooting mode, with settings that are optimized for various subjects, including landscapes, portraits, and action shots; the Creative Style and Picture Effect menu options, which offer dramatic options for altering the appearance of images; and the camera’s strong array of features for continuous shooting and shooting in dim lighting. In addition, the book goes beyond the bounds of everyday photography, and provides introductions to more advanced topics such as infrared photography, street photography, astrophotography, digiscoping, and macro photography. The book also includes a full discussion of the video recording abilities of the RX100 II, which can shoot high-definition (HD) video with stereo sound, and which offers manual control of exposure and focus during movie recording. In three appendices, the book provides information about accessories available for the RX100 II, including cases, external flash units, viewfinders, and filter adapters, and includes a list of web sites and other resources for further information.
