 Nikon should include this book with the camera August 26, 2008
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
IF your buying a D300, I'd spring for Dave's book and just forget reading the manual inlcuded with the camera. The book is sooo much easier to read and follow. The nice color images of all the menus, settings, and examples(these are most useful) help accent the knowledgeable text. The price is well worth it (it's only $20 thruough amazon). Highly recommended.
The nay-sayers are wrong, this is a great book for D300 owners. August 20, 2008

I pay heavy attention to negative reviews before buying a book. I read the 3 negative reviews of this book, bought it anyway, and am glad I did. If you are considering buying a D300, just do it - it's a great camera. And if you buy a D300, this book is the best out there for getting you up to speed fast. The other books/video previews I've seen are a rehash of the manual. This book doesn't just tell you what a setting does, it tells you why and when you should use it. It also provides a number of different configurations for different shooting settings (studio vs. sports, etc.) - invaluable.
For the negative reviewer who whined and moaned that the author mentions a subject briefly and then mentions he'll talk about it in greater detail in another chapter? Dude, it's a literary device called a "cross reference". I'm not sure why your panties in a wad, but get over it, for Pete's sake. The other whines, moans and gripes I read are equally invalid and anal.
This is a great book - D300 owners should not hesitate to buy it.

I'm still reading it and will continue to do so until I have mastered this camera. Simple enough for non-techy's like me...helpful enough for the pro-photographer.

If you own a Nikon D300, this book is a must for your library.
What the author has done is amazing. I can think of no camera that has a better book to go along with the manual than this one. This book offers ideas and suggestions that I have to go to other books to get. This book is an all in one book.
I just hope the author does another on for the Nikon D700.
This is a must purchase for all Nikon D300 owners.
