- Nikon
metering and autofocus modes explained in plain English! Wonder
what the matrix metering pattern looks like and how it works?
Can't figure out Dynamic autofocus, Release Priority, Focus Priority,
Closest Focus Priority, and a host of other terms used to describe
features of the focusing system? Thom Hogan's Complete Guide
to the Nikon D100 explains these terms and accompanying techniques
in the same simple, no-nonsense language that made his Nikon
Field Guide a best seller.
- A
complete instruction manual and an introduction to relevant
digital issues in one source! Thom Hogan's Complete Guide
to the Nikon D100 manages to not only fully describe every
feature of the D100 in clear, easy-to-understand language, but
gives you rich, technical background for many of the critical
issues that confront digital camera users.
- Includes
useful Photoshop Actions and Depth of Field spreadsheet! On
the disc is Thom's Excel spreadsheet, which allows you to calculate
depth of field and hyperfocal distance for any Nikon lens used
with the D100 (note that depth of field on a digital body like
the D100 is not the same as it is for 35mm film). But
that's not all! You'll also get Excel workbooks for macro and
flash (know how to calculate the GN of multiple flashes or the
effective GN when bouncing? You will if buy this book!).
What others
say about this eBook:
"Serious
owners of the Nikon D100 will want to buy [this book]. Well organized,
engagingly written, and extensively illustrated..." --Digital
Camera magazine
"I
recently purchased and received Thom Hogan's Complete Guide
to the Nikon D100 eBook. I was a little skeptical before reading
it as I imagined it would just be a rehash of what was in the
manual. Boy was I wrong. There's a ton of great info in this thing
(and some nifty supplemental tools too). He's included a lot of
the 'how come it works this way' kind of info I really needed
to understand as I move from 35mm to a DSLR. If any of you are
on the fence about ordering it I'd suggest going for it. Two thumbs...way
up." --digichrome, posting on dpreview.com
"I
had the book printed and bound. Your work is great. The technical
detail is exactly what I was looking for. The book is a very well
structured and informative guide. Not like the random details
presented in the Nikon user manual where u have to go from one
section to the next and back again all the time. I like the way
you build the users knowledge as you present each topic."
--Greg Phillips, CEO AirRunner Technologies
"I've
learned more about digital cameras & the D100 than I thought
possible from what should have been the 'owners manual' "
--Scott Oglevee
"I
quite enjoyed your Complete Guide to the Nikon D100 and
find the information much easier to follow than Nikon's documentation."
--Len Grenier
"I
bought your Complete D100 book and read it front to back in order
to prepare for my first photography gig (event photos for a party).
And that book (the flash section in particular) along with some
practice over the course of the week helped me get much better
photos than I would have gotten otherwise. Your recommendations
on low-contrast tone for JPEGs, exposure and flash compensation,
and avoiding overexposure in general really did the trick. I'm
just starting out but I feel like I've gotten a big head start
thanks to you. Anyway, thanks again and keep up the good work
- it's appreciated!" --Brian Ng
"I
received my e-book on the D100 a couple of days ago and have had
a hard time putting it down since. I think you have done a really
great job with the book. Not only is it a great reference that
will help me get the most out of my D100 but it also provides
an excellent introduction to "digital workflow", which
is key to getting the most out of my images. Your explanations
are clear, thorough and go into the kind of depth sorely missing
from most consumer/prosumer guides to digital photography. I'd
say there is a little something for everyone in this book regardless
of level of experience with digital photography. I highly recommend
this as an essential resource for those who own (or are thinking
of owning) a D100. Thanks for a great book." --Doug DeSimone
"Just
started reading your D100 ebook, and I gotta tell you it is fantastic.
The material and style is really good, and I also like the way
you have formatted it...it prints very very nice" --Paul
Beiser
