Book Reviews of Nikon D90 For Dummies

Book Review: Easier Read Than the Manual
Summary: 5 Stars

When I was thinking of what to say in this review, it occurred to me that reading "Nikon D90 for Dummies" was like having a friend walk you through what the camera does -- and then I read similar comments by another reviewer.

When I was looking for a book to help me understand the D90 and all it could do, I narrowed my choices down to Julie Adair King's (JAK) book and Ben Long's "The D90 Companion." I have no regrets in buying either one.

JAK's book is well written and very well illustrated. Some may find the continual references to other sections repetitious, but those cross references are most helpful when you use the book as a reference. "... for Dummies'" scope is limited to what the D90 does and how the user activates the various functions. JAK has written other books on photography which presumably pick up where this book leaves off.

I'd recommend reading this book with your D90 close at hand. Try what she says on YOUR D90. And of course practice! As we all know, all your pictures except the first one are free.
