This book is a slightly larger manual which will teach you all about your camera but not how to take better photographs. The language is simple enough to understand and the font, size of text and layout make the book easy to read. The images and all of the text is black and white which makes the book a little boring and sometimes hard to see. Overall, it's a good reference book it's just a shame about the black and white images.

This book wont be winning any beauty prizes but the information it has on offer lets it off a little. The book covers a wide selection of topics and is written in a clear and concise way. The lack of colour lets it down a little as the black and white images mean details, such as camera diagrams, are not clear. This is a good reference guide that will help you learn more about your camera but it wont help you improve your technique. If you're looking for a reference guide that's easy ...

The book may not help you take better photographs but it will certainly help you understand your camera more.

This book is a quick reference guide perfect for a photographer looking for a little more detail than their user manual has to offer. A wide variety of topics are covered and the book is written in a clear and concise way. The fact that the book is in black and white and is lacking images is a slight disappointment but, never the less, the information given is still useful and worthy of a look.

The title of the book suggests it's a complete photography guide and the 478 pages do a rather good job at backing this up. The book is well written, the advice is easy to follow and it can be quite inspiring too. Images are in abundance which makes the book easier to work through and there's also Photoshop lessons which show you how to get to grips with post-production editing.

What this book lacks in colour it makes up in words. It may not be the nicest book to look at but it does cover a wide selection of topics in a clear and concise way. It isn't a guide that will help you improve your photography but it will give you a better understanding of your camera. It's a shame the images are black and white but overall, thanks to the simple English and useful descriptions, this is a great reference book for any Nikon D200 users out there.

This book is not a text book. It doesn't tell you how to do a particular technique, instead, it shows you a great collection of images and explains how and why they were taken. The book is full of well-taken images which are beautiful to look at and supported by the author's notes. All the images are split into chapters which are headed by explanations and have an abundance of photographs for you to admire. Many subjects are covered and it's the perfect book to sit down and just browse for...
