Book Reviews of Nikon D300s Digital Field Guide
Book Review: Makes the learning curve a little less steep!
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased a D300s as an upgrade from my D90 because I was trying to get away from the Auto modes and I figured that the D300s would make me step up my game. Well, I didn't realize that the learning curve was going to be so steep.
A friend of mine has bought a few of the digital field guide books and loved them (the new Creative Lighting System guide in particular). She told me that the writing was straight, to the point and super easy to understand, and she was spot on. This book breaks down all of the technical aspects and explains them in a no-nonsense and easy to understand way.
Not only does the author go through and explain every button and menu option, he explains situations where you might want to use them. My favorite part of the book is the real world applications. These chapters explain a bunch of different types of photography and give real in depth advice on how to achieve pictures just like the pros do. There is also a great chapter on lenses which is very helpful especially because the author doesn't simply recommend the high end Nikon models but also gives you advice on some great lenses from other companies. Let's face it, not all of us can afford Nikon's pro lenses, but we would still like a piece of quality glass.
To put it bluntly I was on the verge of getting rid of the D300s and going back to the D90 and the Auto modes, but this book has helped me get over that learning curve, stop being frustrated with my camera and start taking great shots!
