I'd recommend a freind to buy the book.
The book in addition to the a very concise description of every feature of the camera, it gives many small and helpful tips and ideas.

5 out of 5 stars No brainer for the D300   September 23, 2008

If you have a D300 get this book.I moved up from a D70s,and It was a good move.The D300 Is a lot more complex and does require some study.David "ALMOST" makes the Nikon manual obsolete,a lot easier to use and understand.I get lost In the manual but the book makes It look easy.You will be missing a lot of features of the camera if you don't read this book.


5 out of 5 stars Great book. HUGE   September 19, 2008

I actually bought this book thinking that it would be like the Magic Lantern books. A small but well written and illustrated field manual. WRONG. It is a large, well written instruction book that shows you everything you could possibly need to know about the fantastic Nikon D300 camera. There is not a better book out there if you have a D300, but dont expect to slip this monster in your camera bag.

This book is for the person who knows nothing about photography and for those who think they know everything.
It is most informative in the complexes of this camera and if, like me, you find some aspects hard to take in at first, the beauty of the written word is that it can be re-read.
I've only got to page 63 so far but look forward to picking it up at every chance.
Highly recommended.
