His guides are always superior to the manuals that come with the cameras and are well organized and written. The illustrations are top notch and clear - he does the photography so that is no surprise. The Kindle version is great. easy to navigate and the photos and diagrams can be expanded by tapping and pushing out on them. I never fail to learn something new when I pick it up and read it. Very comprehensive.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A very good reference book...By Bill D.A very good reference book. Ive had my D500 for about 18 months and decided to get this book to really learn some of the intricacies of the camera - proper bracketing techniques. focus modes. and JPEG settings - I shoot RAW + JPG mostly to transfer to my smart phone via SnapBridge.I have learned lots that I could have found elsewhere. but this shortened my research time looking elsewhere such as YouTube and various websites.I bought the Kindle version. but may go back and by the actual book as well which would be nice to tab. highlight and copy certain pages for quick reference. I wish had a Kindle/Real Book combination option. Are you listening ?!?!?My 4 star rating rather than 5 is because in some sections there is a lot of fluff and superfoulous information that may be helpful for someone unfamiliar with photography. but I would hope those folks arent dropping $2K on a DSLR!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
