 David Busch's NIKON D300 June 6, 2008
23 out of 38 found this review helpful
I think that the writer thinks he is the best and continues to just tell you things over and over again about what he is writing about. I think it is boring and he really doesn't get into the facts clearly. He just makes excuses as to why he isn't writting about a feature or he spends time and words to say he will discuss it later on. If he just went through all the issues and the complexity of the camera he would help us greatly...In fact he should tell you how he would set up his camera and tell you why. Then go into details as to how to just program what you would like to suit your own needs. It would be great if he would Cap or " " the words that refer to action as it appears on the camera. Too many times the words flow as description rather than a function that you need to open or click on. I love the large type and the pictures that show clearly the functions but they should be on the same page that the description is on so you don't have to turn pages to look at the picturial.
In general it is a good work book once you get passed all the useless verbage in the beginning.
 Extremely helpful for an amateur. June 5, 2008

This is extremely helpful for an amateur. Tells the why while the manuel only tells the what. Illustrations are excellent.
 Good book June 4, 2008

Quite informative, great price, and needed for these more complicated cameras. It gives more in-depth information in to how the camera works, the settings than the original manual from Nikon.
Best D300 guide yet June 4, 2008

David Busch does this great camera justice with a great guide. A fine read as well, never boring or "too technical". If you own a D300, you should have this book.
Takes Over Where The Manual Leaves Off June 3, 2008
34 out of 37 found this review helpful
The owner's manual that Nikon provide with the D300 is fine, up to a point. However, unless you're already an advanced photographer you'll find yourself asking the question, "Sure I now know how to change that setting, but why would I want to?"
This is where David Busch's book comes in. It is a comprehensive guide to the D300 and explains clearly in large colour pictures and text how to get better photos from what is already a fantastic camera.
I found it to be a superb book, well laid out and, at the price, excellent value for money.
I highly recommend it and suggest that, along with your tripod, alternative lenses and flashgun, it forms an essential component of every D300 photographer's kit.
