What Readers are Saying about the author's previous Nikon guides:


This is the most helpful manual I've ever used. No serious Nikon user should be without this. I find myself referring back to this book quite often - very easy to find what I need and even easier to understand.

-S.B.


All I Need - I have been using Nikon dSLR cameras for many years. In all this time I have never come across a publication which complements the rather soulless and complex user manual so well. Your excellent work is all I need to exploit the potential of this amazing dSLR.

-Martin D.


A well written, professional helpful guide - Exciting, clear to follow, has examples and is by a professional who gives just the right amount of technical info with explanations of why and when to use those settings, all properly explained. The book is well thought through and well written.

-R.D.C.
