[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 193361, member: 13090"] You make a good point. Once you've got the basics down of the Nikon menus and buttons the rest, really, is details and while my *D40* Digital Field Guide was a real eye-opener, by the time I'd gotten to my D7100, I was already familiar with all the "what" type of information such books offered me; hence my original caveat. The field guide is very much a "what" book and not a "how" book. I got a copy of the Digital Field Guide for my '7100 and quickly realized I'd outgrown it. While we're on the subject of books, however, another really good one that clearly falls into the "How" category is Micheal Freeman's [url=http://www.amazon.com/Photographers-Eye-Composition-Design-Digital/dp/0240809343/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378136940&sr=1-7]The Photographer's Eye[/url]. I consider very few photography books "Must Reads" but this is definitely one of them. [/QUOTE]
