Customer Rating:      Summary: Nikon Battery Pack D300/D700 Comment: I purchased this Nikon battery pack for my Nikon D300. This product enables your Frames Per Second to increase as well as overall battery life. Additionally it offeres and provide the user with a better sense of balance when using larger telephoto lenses such as my 70-200mm F/2.8 telephoto lens. After I purchased this product, the New Nikon D700 Full Frame Camera was announced and was made available. I decided to upgrade to Full Frame (FX) format and this battery pack fits perfectly on my new Nikon D700. I am thourougly satisfied with this product and the fine job that Amazon.com did in shipping it too me. Great product at a great price with excellent service is what you can expect from Amazon.com. Thanks
Customer Rating:      Summary: Where's the Beef? Comment: Pleasant and easy to watch but I was hungry for more after each chapter. I'm a novice, but I doubt even the intermediate users would find this very informative. "Stop the DVD and try these steps...." --just doesn't get it. Shame on me, but I had problems just finding the correct camera menu. The lead-up "whats and whys" was good, but way too much detail about the need for a camera function and not enough about the actual function. I bought a camera, not a canvas and paint brush. I'm going to try to find another tutorial. This one left me wanting way more.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A great accessory to the D300. Comment: I was very intimidated when I first got my camera. I was coming off a point and shoot and wanted an entry level SLR, but my husband bought me the D300 instead. I have to admit, I wasn't going to keep it at first because I thought it was too much camera for me. Someone recommended this video, so I tried it. I really liked being able to pause it and do the exercises right along with them. Between that and the manual, I'm actually getting a handle on this incredible camera. I'm so happy with the pictures I've been taking. I would definately recommend this video to anyone who is new to photography and the D300.
Customer Rating:      Summary: for beginning photographers only Comment: While the video was done fairly professionally and had a few useful tips, it really is strictly for beginners. I found myself saying, "duh" about thirty times while watching. The presenter of the material sounded like a representative of the government, choosing words carefully, and adding disclaimers like, "but make sure to read your user manual to be sure." I also noticed there were a couple times when the video would gloss over a topic by using circular definitions. He sound like a foamy the squirrel Indian tech support guy, "What is your operating system? The system you are operating?"
A book like Understanding Exposure by Peterson would do you much better.
If you are a rank beginner, then buy this.
If you are an amateur photographer, then move on.
