You can download the Sony a7II manual in PDF format here.
However, I’d actually recommend looking at the Sony a7ii Online Help Guide instead of the manual, since the online guide covers the camera functions in more detail.
The online help guide is also available in PDF format here, although the online version is much easier to navigate.
Sony a7II Forum & Facebook Group
If you are looking for further help and advice on the a7II or would simply like to share your photos, then please head over to our friendly Sony a7 Forum. If you prefer Facebook then I also run the Sony Alpha Shooters Group where you can ask questions or post your shots taken with the Sony a7II.
Sony a7II Guide Book
If you would prefer to hold a book in your hands than view a PDF file, then I can highly recommend David Busch’s Sony a7II Guide Book which is available at Amazon.

Sony a7II FAQs
Although the Sony a7II does not have the fastest autofocus, if you shoot more often with manual focus then the a7II is still a good buy. If you shoot a lot of fast action and rely more on autofocus then the Sony a7III will be the more suitable camera.
You simply need to press the DISP Button on the rear of the camera. Each time you press the DISP button, the display changes as follows: Graphic Display → Display All Info. → No Disp. Info. → Histogram → Level → For viewfinder → Graphic Display.
You can change the date and time in the menu here: MENU → (Setup) → [Date/Time Setup] → desired setting.
