Less than 1/2 the book is D300 specific September 14, 2008 J. C. Mayes 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
The rest of the book is generic photography 101 material. I was disappointed. The book lacks depth on the D300 features and capabilities. I recently received and read David Busch's D300 book and it is much more in-depth and has very little generic photography 101 in it.
This "field guide" will be discarded in favor of David Busch's D300 guide.
Good, not Great July 8, 2008 Raymond E. Rippel (Kailua, HI United States) 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
About half this book is devoted to the D300, and is done relatively well. Two criticisms: the other half is generic photography information and the D300 data is not as in depth as I would have liked.
Nikon D300 Digital Field guide review July 7, 2008 Michael H. Eldred (San Diego) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book seemes to give you a easy reference. Not as in depth as I would like as I learn more. A good place to start with your camera.
