I recently purchased the Nikon D3000 and after being out of photography for several years, wanted a refresher and good tutorial about the Nikon. If you're a beginner, the DVD is great and perfect for you. It is very introductional on most of the camera's settings, features, how to take and download pictures. Aside from the initial set-up, the DVD spends most of the time on the automatic settings of the camera (portrait, landscape, nighttime, etc.) and how to shoot under those preset settings. It spends very little time on manual settings or how to adjust the camera manually for speficifc shots. So, if you are more an intermediate photographer (like me) and not a beginner, you may want to skip to the next DVD by Nikon School "Understanding Digital Photography" which I have now ordered. This DVD is produced very well, fun to watch, easy to follow and does give great tips but again, it's meant for a true beginner.

I bought this DVD for my son, who is new at photography. It covers all of the basics quite well, and it is done with the D3000 camera - the specific model that he had.

It is too basic for someone that has been taking photos for awhile, because it covers topics such as Aperture, ISO speed, and shutter speed with photo examples of how the changes affect the photos.

I would recommend this for any beginner.

My In-Laws bought me this camera as a gift, and had really no clue how to use it. This video makes it really easy for me to understand the features on the Nikon 3000. Good real world examples are shown that can be very helpful!

Good basic dvd. Some parts were too basic. Generally very helpful in getting started. I will keep this and use it to review functions in the future.

Great beginners instructional DVD. If you're going from point and shoot digital to Nikon D3000 SLR camera, a great tool to getting started. If you're familiar with SLR's, this DVD is just a quick reference guide.

This was well presented and a great way to learn tips for best use of the camera and for taking more professional photographs.

Easy to review time and time again.

Well worth the money.
