As all "Dummies" books are, this is a great way to get started in using this camera. Easy to understand and is much easier to follow than the camera's manual, if you are not familiar with digital SLR's. The author gives tips and her recommendations for settings, which really is helpful.

Bought the book in order to helps out with my new camera. I'm a newbie when it comes to DSLR cameras so this would be the perfect book for me and it did not disappoint. Very thorough explanation of everything and how to use all the different features of the camera.

We bought the Nikon D3300 camera and this to go with it. I haven't read the entire thing yet, but the parts I've ready have been extremely helpful. My husband loves it too, and he already knew how to use the camera since he uses it at work...he said there are some great tips and more detailed instructions in this book to really help you learn how to use all of the settings. Would recommend if you own the camera to get this too!

This book explains well the features and uses of this sophisticated camera. Four decades ago, I was a fairly proficient amateur user of an SLR film camera. However, I had gotten away from using sophisticated cameras. I have been using "point and shoots" since then. Recently, I longed to return to good photography, and I bought the Nikon D3300. I have bought two books to help me get into the technology I have bought. This is the better of the two. It explains things basically, and it is designed to allow you to enter any part of the book and understand what you are reading. In other words, I repeats things it has discussed previously, rather than either assuming you read the earlier section or referring you back to it. That may be a bit irritating if you read it straight through, but you can easily skim through the repetition you remember reading.This book explains the features well and well-describes how to use them to best effect. I recommend it for someone who wants to learn how to use the features of this sophisticated camera. If you are an advanced user, (1) you do not need this book, and (2) you should not buy this entry-level DSLR camera.

I recommend this book for any person who wants to start in photography using this amazing camera. Clear sheets and images, easy-going explications and shows you how to get 100% of your Nikon D3300.

This book makes the learning curve for a 1st time DSLR Camera user significantly easier. I jumped straight to page 67 to learn how to just take a simple picture, and then branched out from there. I wouldn't have half the proficiency in using this camera without this book!

I have always enjoyed taking photography but had never owned anything better than a point and shoot camera so I finally went out and bought a Nikon D3300. From experience working with a D600 for my job, I knew there was going to be a mountain of functions that I would need to learn about as I had only ever used the D600 in Auto mode. Instead of taking an expensive online course, I decided that I would try this book first and boy was it a good purchase.Before reading this book, I didn't know the first thing about f stops, aperture, shutter speeds, or exposure. Now, I can tell you all about them and much much more. The way this book breaks down these key concepts makes it so much simpler than any webpage I tried to read. I may not be an expert in photography but simply reading this book taught me everything I needed to know about the D3300 and how to begin my journey in advanced photography.

It's a sin to own a beautiful piece of equipment like this but only ever use it on the automatic setting. This book gives you easy step by step instruction that will help you produce pictures that rival a pro. I'm thrilled with the tips I'm picking up from this book. I'm finally getting my money's worth from my Nikon camera. Great for the amateur photographer like me who wants to do more! Great learning tool!
