I have bought a DSC HX200V bridge camera.  I am totally new to Sony stills cameras and need to have a user guide to refer to to get to know the cybershot features.  The website says the guide - called the i-manual - is downloadable but I can't download it.  If it was in PDF I could but how can I down load a html.  I am over 70 so I would appreciate any help I can get but please use technical language I can understand!!  The response from Sony Support was to BUY a hard copy from authorised spares partners 4ourhouse.  Please help me!

    Hi Wilky-OAP and welcome.

     

    The iManual is only available online as it is just a collection of links to different online pages. You can, of course, print the individual iManual pages when they are on your computer screen by pressing 'Print'.

     

    Your camera also has an internal user guide.  When you select any menu item, you can bring up the internal manual page on the camera's display for that particular item at the touch of a button.

     

    Do you have the original User Guide which comes with the camera?  This is downloadable in .pdf format?

    I think this covers the basics and can be printed.

    I fully understand what you are saying - I am also in that age group that would prefer a comprehensive User Manual.

     

    I personally doubt if a printed version of the i-Manual exists and the only way is to print all the individual pages of interest.  I don't think you can buy one as a spare part! Like most manufacturers, Sony have progressively reduced the printed matter included with new products to save a few pence.  I think they have gone too far.

     

    Let us know if you have any luck locating a more comprehensive printed guide as it would prove popular!
