So I figured, what do have to lose? 1 out of 5 stars.

It's only five bucks. Well, I lost five bucks. Don't bother buying this book. If you bought a D70 and you need this book to figure out how to work it, you should have bought a disposable camera. Do you really need this book to tell you to turn the ring on the lens to zoom? If you're sitting at home with your $1000 camera in your lap waiting for this book to arrive so you can learn how to zoom your camera, then this book is for you. Overnight it if you have to. Otherwise, don't buy the book, send me four dollars so I can enjoy a cup of coffee at Fourbucks. At least one of us will get something for your money and you would have saved a dollar. It's a win-win.

Editorial Review:

Learn the Nikon D70 for 5 Bucks is a concise, bright, four-color, quick-reference manual for one of the most popular digital SLR cameras in the market. The text is integrated with large photographs and the Nikon's menu photographs or software interface shot interface screen captures, (either s). Brief tips or warnings at page bottom address any ancillary points not covered in the basic how-to text. Readers will quickly learn how to master the key skills they need to take great photos with their Nikon-- basic shooting tips, adjusting the LCD monitor, managing white balance, creating panoramic shots, using the zoom feature, downloading images with a card reader or USB cable, printing photos, and so on. With a 6x7 trim size and an extremely affordable price, this book isn't designed to be a complete reference, but is a useful guide for people users who just want to learn the basics of their Nikon D70 camera.

Editorial Review:

Digitalfotografie wird in der aktuellen Literatur stets als DIGITALfotografie verstanden. Dieses Buch versucht bewusst, zu einem besseren Verständnis der modernen Fotografie zu führen, indem das erfolgreiche Zusammenwirken von klassischer mit digitaler Technologie genauso im Fokus steht wie Techniken und Besonderheiten der Digitalfotografie selbst. Die Grundlagen werden dabei theoretisch erläutert und an Bildbeispielen gezeigt. Hinzu kommen besondere Themen der Digitalfotografie wie Farbe und Schwarzweiß, Rausch- und Staubkorrektur, Internetpublikation, Urheberrechtsfragen und die Möglichkeiten des "digitalen Negativs", der raw-Datei. Neben Photoshop wird weitere einschlägige Software wie GIMP und C1 behandelt.

Easy to understand, gives you a greater appreciation of everything this camera can do. 4 out of 5 stars.

The only problem that I saw with this particular issue is that, this book has black and white pictures. As the author explains all the functions and features of this camera, he asks that you look at the differences in the quality of the pictures. The problem with that is, the pictures are in black and white. I felt cheated because this book costs $29.00. In saying that, overall, the instructions on using the camera are very good. I rate this book a 4 only because it is well written and very easy reading.
