This may have been posted before, so I apologise if so.
Have just taken delivery of my K20d. Any recommendations for a user guide to take me beyond the Pentax Standard Manual, ( have downloaded the EBook from Yvon Bourque and while their guide for the K10d was very good, the k20d guide is not as detailed on the many features).

By far the best book is the Magic Lantern Guide link
Much more use than the Pentax manual.
I bought one for my K10D and I learnt so much from it.

Just read the review on Amazon for this book.
Please ignore it as the guy that wrote it is an eejit. He's moaning about the book not going into detail on HDR.
HDR is a technique that can be grasped through experience and learning from others. It does not have to be given a chapter dedicated to it in an excellent manual.

Thanks Paul for comments re Magic Lantern Guide, must admit was thrown a bit by review on Amazon re HDR, (which for me is not a priority at this stage).

I can only agree Paul, better details in the Magic Lantern Guide
