D300 Review by Thom Hogan

For Nikon D300 owners, fans and anybody who's interested in this camera

Posted by Ken on March 12, 2008 at 9:07pm in Gear Talk

Just to make you aware of a review of the D300 by Thom Hogan that has just been released on his own site at http://www.bythom.com/nikond300review.htm#handling. It makes for interesting reading, but only contains a few tips as this is a precursor for the impending launch of his 700 + page book/manual on the D300.

Regards

Ken

I think I might go for George Manns little cards, a wonderful idea and will save me carting the manual about with me. - Ken; ▶ Reply to This

I should mention that this is not a set of cards but rather and eight page laminated "book" that folds in accordian fashion, sort of like a map. I designed it to easily fit in a camera bag pocket, without really taking up any room. I do a lot of remote location photography so decided to make something I could use myself, no matter where I go.

Sounds good to me. By the way I ordered mine yesterday.

I have seen the "paperwork" go through, the Pocket Guide is on the way to you. I hope you get a lot of good use out of it.

Thank you, George; ▶ Reply to This
