Book Reviews of Nikon D90 inBrief laminated reference card

Book Review: Nice, but probably not necessary
Summary: 3 Stars

I bought this at the same time as my Nikon D90. This actually arrived before the camera itself. I read the PDF version of the manual (from Nikon) before the camera arrived and I was pretty well prepared. I only needed a few days with the camera to get to know a lot of the functions that I will use. I also read the D90 guide from Ken Rockwell for some tips based on his actual usage. In my first two weeks with the camera, I haven't used this reference card more than once or twice, but I'll probably pack it into my camera bag anyway.

As far as a reference card goes, it's clear, colorful, and well laid out. The lamination will keep it protected. It's a good reference but not a must-have.

Summary of Nikon D90 inBrief laminated reference card


Your new Nikon D90 has many controls and settings designed to allow you to make a perfect exposure. But remembering where they are and how the features work together can be daunting.

If you decide to carry the user manual in your bag but finding the answer to your question can be a frustrating experience. That is why Blue Crane Digital developed an abbreviated field reference guide to your digital SLR.

The inBrief reference card is a laminated, foldable guide that answers most camera operation questions quickly and easily. The information is arranged logically for ease of use.

The cover panel of each inBrief displays a labeled line drawing of the camera, and a color-coded index to the rest of the panels. For instance, if you have a question about white balance, just check the index, then turn to the purple panel. An overview of the information on each of the twelve panels is listed below:

Cover: Annotated line drawing, General index
Blue: Viewfinder, Control panel, and Monitor displays
Red: Camera functions by exposure mode; Flash information
Lime: Focus; Drive Modes; Self-timer
Yellow: Exposure; Metering; Bracketing
Purple: White balance; ISO; Image size/quality
Orange: Displaying images; Resetting the camera
Green: Custom settings

The inBrief reference card is professionally printed on 10 point card stock, and is laminated on each side for long wear and protection from the elements. When folded, the dimensions are 5.5 by 4.25 inches. It fits neatly into the outside pocket of your camera bag for instant access. Once you have an inBrief, you can leave your manual at home.
