Products: AMG Media Publishers

There's a new line of camera field guides by AMG Media Publishers. That might not sound very exciting, but the first guide out — Goodman's Guide to the Panasonic SDX900 — sets a new level of usability and reader friendliness that makes other camera guides seem old fashioned. Written by DP Robert M. Goodman, the guide's concise explanations and clear four-color illustrations take the user through step-by-step setups of each camera function. An included CD shows how each of 20 different camera setups will actually look. Panasonic distributes the guide with the camera. For more information, email amgmedia@aol.com
