Description
Focal Digital Camera Guides: Nikon D60
Just bought a Nikon D60 and looking to combine practical know-how with inspiration? This one-stop,
easy-to-read guide covers all the basic functions of the camera, and everything beyond.
For the basics, turn to the quick start guide,
which will get you up and running in five minutes.
For an understanding of your camera's many controls and features, check out the section
called "The Camera." If all you need is a quick explanation, you'll find it. If you're looking for the Whole Story, you'll find that,
too. Settings that affect how your pictures look are accompanied by full-color examples that show you exactly what you can expect. This
section also covers the camera's menus, playback features, memory cards, and power sources.
The section called "Software" shows you
how to get the most out of your camera's software. It covers downloading, editing your photos, RAW conversion, storing your images, managing
your library, and backup strategies - to name just a few topics.
Ultimately, this book's greatest strength isn't its focus on the camera
or the software; it's the detailed, easy-to-follow instruction it offers on using your camera to take truly superior photographs. Sections
devoted to lenses, subject matter, and light cover these variables in depth, always presenting the most effective techniques in the context
of the strengths and limitations of the Nikon D60.
Written by a widely acclaimed photographer and photography instructor, Nikon D60
shows you how to get the shots you can see in your head but have never been able to capture with a camera.
* The quick start guide will
have you taking great photos in five minutes.
* In-depth coverage of every feature and control ensures that you have access to the tools
you need for every shot.

* Expert coverage of lenses,
lighting, and subject matter gives you the practical knowledge you need to go after any shot.
* Step-by-step instructions on photo editing
and image management help you get the most out of your camera's software.
* A detailed review of accessories for your camera explains
which of these add-ons offer the most value for your needs.
* Dozens of tips and tricks prepare you for every situation you're likely
to encounter - in the field, at the studio, or at your next wedding or family reunion.
