Book Reviews of Magic Lantern Guides: Nikon D300 (Magic Lantern Guides)
Book Review: What's the big deal?
Summary: 2 Stars
This book was recommended to me by a friend but I really don't like it much. First, contrary to my expectation it is NOT written in a noticeably more congenial, easy-to-follow style than the manual that came with my camera. I believed the idea was a to provide a very usable alternative to the lingo of the manual and I don't see any of that. In fact I find the writing quite poor overall and there are an incredible number of typos, suggesting that it was rushed to print in order to play to the market for this very popular camera (even though it's been about 9 months since the camera came to market).
If this is any indication of their typical quality then I think the Magic Lantern guides are overrated and suspect that a more user-friendly alternative would have a good chance in the marketplace.
