Book Reviews of Nikon D40/D40x Digital Field Guide

Book Review: A must have
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is a "must have" for the D40/D40X owner. It is extremely easy to use and Nikon would do well to supply it with the camera instead of their present manual. I have found settings that I was not aware existed and as a result have increased my pleasure in using the camera. I was not aware that infrared photography was possible with digital cameras but this book includes directions and I am in the process of experimenting with it. I am an engineer and frankly I had problems using the included manual but this book has solved that condition.

Book Review: Should be standard-issue for new D40/D40x owners
Summary: 5 Stars

The Nikon D40/D40x Digital Field Guide could be a replacement for the owner's manual, and so much more. In addition to explaining the camera's features with simple language and large color photos, the author delves into the operation of Nikon's lens system and then provides countless examples and exercises to inspire the imagination and provide a solid foundation for DSLR users. I obtained this book in order to help a friend who recently purchased the D40X, but now I think I'll just turn the book over to him - he'll be in good hands.

Book Review: 'Must have accessory' with the Nikon D40
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an excellent piece of work, very thoughtfully organized and well written. Nikon should distribute a copy of this book along with the camera, instead of their user manual.
I ordered a copy as soon as I ordered my Nikon D40. The book came first so I had some time to read before I got my hands on the camera. The Nikon user manual never got a chance to open. This will be the best investment you make besides the D40 itself. When you look at the results of your shooting, you will thank yourself for buying this book.

Book Review: Very useful
Summary: 5 Stars

This Nikon D40 field guide is what every owners manual should be. Well written with lots of illustrations. I especially like the practice exercises to really make the text come alive. This book is helping get so much more out of my Nikon D40 than the owners manual.Nikon D40 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX Lens and Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED DX VR Zoom-Nikkor Lens + 4GB (SD) Card

Book Review: Nikon D40/D40x Digital Field Guide
Summary: 5 Stars

If you own either of these cameras, this is the guide for you. It is much easier to understand than the original manual that was included with the camera and explains in depth all of the camera's functions, plus examples of how to take great photographs.
It also explains which additional digital lenses can be used and how each of them functions.
If you read this guide through, you will take your camera off "auto" and will enjoy making photographs that you only saw in magazines.
