FS700 manual online anywhere?

[capt chuck]

I'm still waiting for my FS700 and thought it might be nice to get familiar with the its operation, but I couldn't find the manual on the Sony site. Has anyone seen the manual posted anywhere?

Also, I would sure like to get a Barry Green type of book (I'm guessing he sticks to Panasonic only) for a bit more depth than the manual provides if anyone has heard of one of these in the works.

Thanks

I'm also really interested in a Barry Green style book for this camera. There's a lot of sliders in the picture profile settings and I'm wondering what some of them do, and if any of them are of practical use--the Color Depth menu, for instance, looks like a great way to tweak your color a bit on-location to really pop your image right out of the camera, but I can't tell from the LCD if changing the values affects the image. Granted my lighting at the time was horrible. Then there's all kinds of balances that I have no idea about, and I was interested in the pros and cons of different settings in the DETAIL menu. I'm sure I'll continue to experiment as I actually get around to using the camera under shooting conditions, but it would be great to have a few more clues rather than end up messing up a project.
