Quick Question, please help!

[Mattrick]

Hey Everyone,

I just bought the Sony DSC P73, I didn't get a user manual with it, so I was wondering if anyone would know where to get an online version or maybe any ideas like contacting sony about getting one? I just wanted to see if anyone has done either of those before.

--My next question is for settings... this camera will be used to take to parties and for events with my family... so what would be a good resolution setting and things like that... i want crisp quality looking pictures... any help would be greatly appreciated.. this is my first digi cam so if these questions are kind of dull which im sure they are so bear with me!

Thanks again,

Matt

Most manufacturers have manuals available for download. Normally, you'll find these under one of the support menus.

Sony has a search feature here for their Digital Camera docs:

A search for DSC-P73 resulted in several documents, including the main manual which is here:

My next question is for settings... this camera will be used to take to parties and for events with my family... so what would be a good resolution setting and things like that...

Although this will use the most space on your Memory Sticks, I'd stick to the highest resolution and quality (4MP, Fine). You can read more about the camera features in the review here:
