Book Reviews of David Busch's Nikon D300 Guide to Digital SLR Photography
Book Review: Buy it
Summary: 5 Stars
I think this is the most comprehensive book fro D300 owners. It has all the information for new owners that you would find in the manual, but it is laid out much better and is easier to understand with all the large photos the author includes. There are so many menu pictures you can't help but understand.
The D300 is different from previous Nikon DSLRs in terms of focus and metering, and the author clearly explains the differences and offers suggestions as to when to use what metering and/or af option.
Book Review: Best Guide for Nikon D300
Summary: 5 Stars
I was overwhelmed by my D300 before I got this guide. Trying to understand how and when to use all the features of this camera was difficult. But David Busch's guide to the Nikon D300 was just what I needed.
The book is well organized and gives you a good solid understanding of how to make intelligent chices of how to set up and use the full power of this amazing camera.
Book Review: An Excellent D300 Guide Book
Summary: 5 Stars
David Busch's Nikon D300 is an excellent guide for an excellent camera with complex multiple options. I highly recommend it to all D300 users with the possible exception of expert D200 users who need only become familiar with the several upgrades and new options.
The only fault, if it is one, for this extensively detailed guide book is that generic, basic photographic instruction is included and superficially covered when it would have been preferable, from my point of view, for those pages to be used for an easily referenced table listing all the D300 menu options. But, with over 400 pages covering all aspects of D300 use in detail with numerous high quality illustrations, photos and clear, easily followed language, this is a very minor complaint.
The best by far of any camera guide part of my experience yet published and as a bonus, it is priced at less than half the cost of many other photographic books of similar size and quality.
Book Review: Required reading/purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased the D300 and read the Nikon owners manual. David Busch's Nikon D300 book does a better job of explaining in detail the functionality, purpose and ability of this wonderful camera. Simply stated, buy this book even if you think that you "know" this camera, you will not be disappointed.Book Review: Great manual for the D300
Summary: 5 Stars
Compared to the previous manuals I have owned for the D200, including the field guide by David Busch, this is the best. It covers not only the how-to but the why. Great illustrations, clear writing and a wealth of detail make this the second thing you should buy after your D300.
