THE BEST FOR THE STARTER
THE BOOK IS SIMPLY FANTASTIC. VERY EASY TO READ EVEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW VERY WELL THE ENGLISH. YOU CAN FIND ALL THE MENU ITEMS VERY WELL EXPLAINED AND EVEN A LITTLE EXPLANATION OF DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY TECHNICS.

David Busch's Nikon D300 Guide to Digital Photography
This DBusch's digital D300 guide book demystifies and explains in plain language the information that was left out of the user's manual in a very usable manner. The guide also let's you know what it does not include and why and prompts the reader to other information if such is desired by the reader and user of the Nikon D300 Digital camera. Will provide certain assistance to the users of other Nikon digital cameras as well, where they have in-common features. I would rate the book as excellent and a help to anyone beginning with a professional level camera who has less than professional level skills or even for pros who might need a touch-up refresher in certain technical uses of the shooting menus, for example.

a little more than a user's manual
I was disappointed with the fact that this book is only a bit more than a user's manual. For those who are advanced in photography might be boring and obvious. Parts that I found more interesting were very brief.

David Busch's Nikon D300 Guide to Digital SLR Photography (Paperback)
I have been a Nikon-camera user for over 20 years. I would highly recommend this book. It is easy to follow, well illustrated, and frankly, has the quality of a National Geographic Magazine.
I am looking to see if the author has a book on lighting techniques. Accordingly, I guess, "actions speak louder than words". I am impressed by his work on this book and I am trying move on to, hopefully, his next one.
Worth the investment!

Busch's book makes using the d300 a lot easier. Sometimes I refer to the manual that came with the camera, but his illustrations particularly clarify the button controls and use of menus.Index could be more complete - sometimes it refers you to specific page numbers and sometimes to a whole chapter (without specifying page numbers). Over all an excellent reference book for the Nikon D300 and also a good read with some nice photos.
