I received the guide several weeks ago and have been using it ever since. I really like the fact that it is so well put together and easy to use. I am a novice to dSLR cameras having used a point and shoot forever. This guide has helped me so much I had to reccomend it to beginners like me, but also from my review of it I will be using it a long time to come. The information for using all the settings on the camera and learning the manual setting has been wonderful. I was really filled with anxiety at the prospect of using anything but auto. I jumped right in with fireworks and haven’t looked back! I couldn’t beleive fireworks was listed in the index and I took some great shots. I’m looking forward to learning as much as I can and this is a great tool for anyone. The color examples on different shots really help you see the possibilities. Everything you need to know is in this guide, from lighting, to lenses. I don’t even use the manual that came with my camera. The guide fits right into my case and is getting a workout. My camera really feels like a part of me now thanks to this guidebook instead of some foreign object. Everthing is becoming second nature and I couldn’t be happier! HK
I’ve had this book for several days and have found it to be extremely useful for owners of the Nikon D60. It is much better than the manual that came with the camera and is written in a manner that non-technical people can easily understand. Any jargon is clearly explained and advice is plentiful in the book.
The book is well organised and it was easy to find the information I needed. The book certainly did a much better job than the manual of explaining the various camera menus and functions. I especially appreciated the practical advice, tips, examples and typical camera settings in the practice sections of the book. I also liked the description of Nikon’s lens codes in the chapter on lenses, something that had baffled me for some time.
In short, readers of this book will learn how to better use their D60 and master its many functions in a short time. It’s a handy reference that I expect to go back to now and then, even after I’ve finished reading it.
The D60 field guide is an absolute must have for anyone who has a D60 and is new to DSLR photography. If you are not new to DSLR, I would still recommend getting yourself a copy anyway as it serves as an excellent reference tool.
I anxiously awaited the release of this guide after I got a D60 in May. While I waited for its release I used various resources on the internet to familiarize myself with the camera and learn important basics for DSLR photography. Although I was fairly successful on my own, this book would have saved me hours of researching and frustration (not to mention an entire set of photos from the zoo that came out terribly grainy).
Overall, the book does a wonderful job introducing the user to the features and functions of the D60. Also, it is intuitively organized and presents information in a way that makes sense (unlike the user’s manual which I find equally as useful as the spanish version that came with the camera too).
For the novice, a first read through will answer a great deal of the seemingly infinite amount of questions that one may have starting out with DSLR and the D60. For the intermediate to experienced user, the book will prove to be a handy reference guide for specific types of photography.
I keep the book in my backpack wherever I go to take shots and I find that most of the time there are a few pages specifically dedicated to explaining tips and techniques on how to approach and shoot the exact type of photos that I am trying to take. The full color examples with a brief discussion of how to achieve the same are extremely helpful as a starting point for a specific type of shot.

→ Usually, I have my #email checked but due to the call I pushed it back. My work related professional email, is always first as it only has mail from employers & no #spam. I was accepted to write for a website, which is one of three I applied to Friday. Strictly. this will be for more Internet exposure & more discoveries from corporations. — Each website accepts those with & without a degrees & groups in two classes with two types of pay rates (based upon how they pay). It’s by far my regular pay & varies greatly but is not a worry as it also has no limits & no restrictions on content posting & will only be for exposure.

The D3 is the first camera in a long time to actually exceed the hype. There's nothing less expensive that matches it – its only rival is $3000 more.
How did they do the pictures? Does Sasha really have sex with a random girl or is that his real wife?

I've used one and it worked well. Certainly optical >> coax will give you superior sound to analog. And it will be surround.
ei, whats time lapse anyway? cause im excited to buy my d60 ^^
The guide pulley is the upper pulley that guides the chain from one sprocket to the next, the tension pulley is the lower pulley that maintains spring tension on the chain. The upper pulley's bearing allows a bit of side to side movement of the chain to allow it to self center itself on the cassette sprockets.
An AF point is just an area in the viewfinder that the camera can be told to autofocus on. The quantity of these doesn't affect picture quality in any way.
Having more than three AF points is mostly useful for tripod work. Since it means you don't have to reposition the camera to autofocus on an off center subject. When you're hand holding the camera this isn't an issue… just place your intended subject in the center AF marks*, half press the shutter button to focus**, then reposition and shoot.
*the center AF point is the most reliable one anyways.
**alternatively the AF/AE lock button on the back can be programmed to do this.

I guess BlueBell would be one that I would stay away from as it doesn't have as many features as some.
I have only used PhotoMix software for my digital scrapbooking. It works for me as I like to make many collages and such.
Hope that helps
The little "r" number lets you know how many more photos you can take in a row before you have to let the camera catch up, writing image files to your memory card that have been placed in the cameras buffer.
My old D100's buffer is so small, the highest "r" on it is 3.
You can watch it work by shooting as fast as you can and watch the "r" number get smaller and smaller until it reaches 0. You will see how it all works.
haha thanks but I have a Nikon D90 and all the gear.
