PRO: This book is an excellent resource for any owner of a NIKON D300, whether a novice or a more seasoned photographer. It really helps to explain each function and settings of the D300 in much more detail than the NIKON D300 Instruction Manual does. Also, there are some recommended camera menu settings to help to maximize the enjoyment of the D300 under several different lighting situations. CONS: For a very experienced shooter the book spends a large portion dealing whith the basic "How-To's" of the D300, rather than the "Why-To's" & "When-To's". I would like to see a second volume, dealing more with "Real World" shooting scenarios and how to set up the camera for each specific types of shooting, to include Indoor, Outdoor, Flash, Low-Light, Wedding, Portraiture. This should include an in-depth, comprehensive section on proven D300 camera settings from established Professionals for each type of shooting scenario. OPINION: This is an very book ... A 2nd Volums would make it excellent, in my opinion !Read full review
I purchased this guide because I have a Nikon D300 and the owners manual is not descriptive enough. I am very pleased with this book. The explanations of the functions of the camera are in terms that I can relate to. The book covers all of the camera functions in depth. If I get a different camera in the future, I will purchase one of this authors guide books. I would rate this book as excellent.
much easier to understand than the manual that comes with the camera. The pictures help you understand what the author is trying to explain. The price is reasonable also.
An excellent book! Good for professional photographers or beginners just learning a new hobby.

The D300 is my fourth Nikon DSLR. By spending some time to really get to know the camera, I maximize my results and minimize the time it takes to get a really good shot. The D300 has so much to offer that the instruction manual that comes with the camera cannot cover. There are many things I have learned, and any one of them made the price of the book worth my money.
