Reviews
I am new to digital photography and photography in general. After much research I decided to purchase the Nikon D3000. Upon making my purchase and pulling the camera out of the box, I was overwhelmed by all the knobs and buttons on the camera. The users guide which came with the camera really didn't do a good job at explaining what the buttons were actually for and didn't explain how to use them. I decided to purchase this book as well as a D3000 field manual (also form Amazon.com). I can honestly say I would be so lost with out this book. If you are going to buy just one book to help you understand the D3000 this one is it. The book is well written and explains everything this camera has to offer. I highly recommend purchasing this book if you want to learn how to use your new D3000.
