Reviews
I bought this book in lieu of purchasing a Nikon D600. I knew there would be a learning curve for the camera, and I wanted to get a head start on that curve by getting familiar with the book BEFORE I purchased the camera.Once the camera arrived I set to work taking photos and learning. I found this book to be very helpful. The text just didn't tell how to do things, but made a point to explain why things do what they do. I have been an avid photographer for years (45 years), and my ego doesn't stand in my way of me buying any book for "Dummies" because I know these books make learning understandable. I could have toughed it out and not "asked for directions". But, why do that? The book is easy to use; the text is well written and clear, and I'm glad I bought this book!Incidentally, I was reading some general information in line about reprogramming some buttons and functions. I must have read many articles and watched many YouTube videos on how to perform this "simple" task by photographers claiming to be professionals. Sometimes people may be really good at what they do but, they don't seem to be able to explain clearly how they do it. After reading and listening to this gobblledygook, I went strait to the D600 For Dummies Book, and discovered a whole section on this topic, and the explanations were very clear and precise. Great book!
