Pros

Darrell young's nikon d500 guide to digital slr photography is a must-have for new photographers. The book goes beyond the useless owner's manual that comes with the camera. It explains all the functions in your camera so you can make the right choice... Read More

Great info, better than the d500 manual. The wireless/bluetooth setup is a little complicated. I could never quite figure it out until i read (and re-read) the chapter on connectivity.

Competitiveness

I have the nikon d5 and purchased this book due to the similarities with the d500

A must for any level of competence with the nikon d500

Bottom line i would not buy a nikon digital camera without also buying one of youngs books

For example i am less concerned with the difference between sensor pattern in grp auto focus and d25 autofocus than i am with w... Read More
