Book Description

Publication Date: 10 Jan 2011 | ISBN-10: 0321766547 | ISBN-13: 978-0321766540 | Edition: 1
This book is for anyone upgrading from their Nikon D90 or current DSLR to the highly anticipated Nikon D7000. There's the manual, of course, as well as competing books, and while they all explain, often in 400+ pages, what the camera can do, none of them shows exactly how to use the camera to create great images!

This book has one goal: to teach D7000 owners how to make great shots using their new Nikon camera. Users learn how to use the D7000 to create the type of photos that inspired them to buy the camera in the first place. Everything in the book is in service of creating a great image.

Starting with the top ten things users needed to know about the camera, photographer John Batdorff carefully guides readers through the operating features. Owners get practical advice from a pro on which settings to use when, great shooting tips, and even end of chapter assignments.

2.0 out of 5 stars Do you really need a book like this? 10 Jun 2011
By Andy
Format:Paperback
I would imagine that the majority of people buying the 7K are, like me, reasonably experienced photographers. As such we would already understand the basics of photography such as f stops, shutter speeds, metering options and the advantages and implications of the choices we make in relation to them. We would not normally expect to need much guidance in the use of preset "scene" and automatic modes. Yet this is basically what you get with this book - It's a "beginner's guide to photography" applied to a complex and sophisticated piece of kit. As such it falls between two stools and I can't really see it being of much use either to a real beginner or a relatively experienced photographer. Having owned and used the camera for a month I now realise that the very comprehensive Nikon manual is the only support you really need.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nikon 7000 : From Snapshots to Great Shots-- book 22 Jun 2011
By madfotoman
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
For once I am disappointed, not with the service but with the book.
though the title NIKON 7000 is across the front of the book is isn`t really about the NIKON 7000 camera it is more of general book about improving your photography which could apply to the vast majority of modern digital SLR cameras. I feel therefore that having NIKON 7000 in the title is very misleading.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Expected 11 Feb 2011
By Paul W
Format:Paperback
I suppose I better state now that this review is based on what level of Photographer I believed this book was aimed at. I assumed, from reading the descrption, that it was aimed at an Amateur - Intermediate level and above that was trading up from the likes of a D90 (for me it was from a Pentax).

If you use your camera, like I do, in Manual 99.9% of the time then this book is really not for you. Although very well written (hence the 3 stars) it focuses mainly on Auto and the semi-auto priority modes (this accounts for 80% of the book !).

I was very dissapointed as I thought the book would contain handy hints and tips for settings that a pro would use without the need for me to read my owners manual from cover to cover.

I have to thank Amazon, I explained my dissapointment by email and within hours I had an email back letting me know they would give me a refund if I returned the book, which I am doing.

If you use a dSLR on Auto or one of the Priority modes then this book will be right up your street !

This book is a duplicate of the D3100 version. I've found it to be written for a amateur, that requires a kick start into the entry level of dslr. Read more
