Book Reviews of David Busch's Nikon D300 Guide to Digital SLR Photography
Book Review: Well worth the money
Summary: 5 Stars
Covers everything you could possibly need to know.
I bought this and Mastering the D300 By Darrell Young and agree with the reviews here on Amazon.com that they are both well worth buying
Both Books are worthy 5 stars. But if I had to buy one it would be this one as it has a far more friendly style and covers a bit more. I would also say this would also be the better book for a relative novice (It does assume you have some basic photography knowledge). Darrells book however is a bit moreluggable as a field guide.
Book Review: This is the one!
Summary: 5 Stars
As mentioned elsewhere, I am in the process of converting from film to digital photography and there are certain aspects which I have found quite daunting. Over the past few months I have studied several books and tutorial DVDs on the subject as that process of conversion continues. I have also attended courses run by Nikon (UK) and it was on the first of those I was introduced to this book. My fellow student insisted this was the best available on the subject and I have come to the conclusion he was right.
Of course, there are those whose expertise is already at a well advanced level who seem to delight in purchasing products such as this just to write a less than praiseworthy review. It's called showing off! Take it from someone who has studied the field, whatever you want or need to know about this camera, the answer really is found in this product.
Laid out in an easy-to-follow format with plenty of excellent illustrations this book begins at the BEGINNING by helping you set up your camera. Slowly, the author builds upon each item shown as we work our way through the book to learn all, there is to learn about the Nikon D300.
I always find it better to read a number of books on the same subject - if only because a different approach often helps to explain a difficult point in an alternative way. If, however, you can only afford one book on this subject, then "This" is the one to buy.

Book Review: Nikon D300 review
Summary: 4 Stars
excellent book.This book is ideal for people new to digital photography.Book well laid out and all info easy to find. Book Review: best for beginers
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book having owned the camera for around 6 months. I felt I was probably missing out on some of the cameras capabilities, as I had struggled to get to grips fully with the manual. Overall the book is extremely well written, with none of the usual repetition that drives me mad in this kind of manual, although it is rather American. However, the only new stuff I picked up related to the live-view capabilities, which I will probably use as much as I use my old "star-burst" filters!
Overall this is a great book for beginers, with many good pointers, but the best way to learn is to get out there and take more pictures - enjoy your D300.
Book Review: Fantastic Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an essential read for the Nikon D300 owner. I have had my D300 6 months before I bought this book and I should have bought it sooner. It complements to the the information supplied in the Nikon manual in a very easy to read manner. Highly recommended!
