No printed manual with this camera? Anyone know where a print manual without the COPY watermark might be found?

I would call Canon and bitch them out. Sadly, it seems like all the manufacturer are doing the same thing and I think it's a crock. Who wants to sit at the PC and read what I heard is a 96 page manual with COPY stamped on it. I was going to buy the 20is and found out there was no manual. I don't have to have a Canon for a P&S, I would rather find one with a manual, which I haven't yet.

I agree on the manual. I took the .pdf file for the big manual to a local chain office supply store, and had them make a bound hard copy of the manual for me. It was ~$24 (in black and white-which is fine), but well worth it. Within 5 minutes of reading the manual, with cam in hand, I learned several things that I had glossed over due to the electronic-only version of the manual provided by Panasonic.

As you may know, the camera is out. Mine is due to arrive from Amazon tomorrow. (I pre-ordered back in February)For some sample photos taken in hands of real users here's a link <<Please note: at the bottom another photographer "phat-slug" included 14 pictures taken that can be blown up for evaluation>>http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1007&thread;=37922920

Nikon did not include a hard copy of the manual. It is available in English on-line from Nikon in PDF format. I keep a copy on my iPad in iBooks.

do a google search for the manual as a PDF ... it's the same one that came with the camera

Mine came with a manual but you can do a google search and a PDF file will come up that you can print out.

Hi Ryan. Sorry it took so long to get back to you on this but my printer/scanner has been out of service for the past week. I was going to upload scanned photos of the manual however Amazon will not let me upload photos after I've already posted a review. That being said I made a slideshow video and uploaded it. Since it's a video is may take a day or two to post. I'd send you the PDF but I have no other means of contacting you. Hopefully this helps.

Answer here...Yes. But its a soft copy and not a printed one. IF I were you, I would look at buying a different camera. I am not happy with the focussing/ indoor pics etc.

Mine came with a hard copy manual which includes trouble shooting, but there is also a Help icon on the printer itself with basically the same information.

If you do buy the camera, also buy 'Photographer's Guide to the Sony DSC-RX100' as the manual in the box, and on-line is useless. It is available on Amazon.

Hmm, that's really odd. My best guess would be the card first, I've taken a good amount of raw files in my 60 & I've never encountered anything on that matter. If the card was the issue then awesome, but if you try other cards and it seems to be the camera itself; then I would recommend calling canon directly. Here is the number & I hope this was helpful! : 1 800 652 2666 :D

I know its a little late but I just got one of these - refurbished. It had the camera, USB cable, AV cable, carrying strap, AC charger, and a little string for the lens cap which for some reason is friction fit (no latch)NO MANUAL! but I understand this is standard for the business. ( the manual probably costs almost as much as the camera lol)

Because manufactures are becoming cheaper. Opened my new Powershot a1400 to find I couldn't even use it until I went back to a store and spent more money. Not only that but it only comes with startup guide (1 page). The operator's manual is only online. Since I don't have a computer had to go to local library and spend $10 to print out the 100 pages. How petty !!!

All I received with my camera was a CD. I would contact Canon and see if they have it online that you could print out.

When you purchase it brand new, there is a manual. I purchased it "used" and it wasn't included.

I am looking to purchase this camera & just got off the phone with panasonic tech support.No,it does not come with an advanced owners manual,but one can be purchased for $22.16 +sh.I am now going to search net to see if advanced manual can be downloaded,it seems that all electronics today come with a very rudimentary how to book that explains just the very very basics.I have found & downloaded manuals for verizon phones & tomtom gps products,good luck doing this if you are not interested in paying exorbitant prices for info that should be included with product.

I'm sure if you go to the Nikon website, you can download a PDF file of the booklet. Didn't you get one with your camera? I believe I did. Mine was sent in for repairs, so I don't have the box right now, but I'm quite sure I got a book with my purchase.
