nope, I knew that much, but needed the manual to help me understand where the
"features" are. I got a couple nice books on photography basics,
Iwas thinking I'll get the Dummies book before I go to camp... I got lots of
time and space to take pics there in the evenings, daylight for 24 hours and
all.. maybe I'll see the wolverine or some musk ox or something too.. lots of
rabbits there to click at as well..

fact, it's getting difficult these days to count on the camera manual
teaching you much of anything about the camera. Well, I shouldn't say,
"these days". Oly manuals have always been abysmally poor for technical
content.
