Photographer's Guide to the Nikon Coolpix P1000: Getting the Most from Nikon's Superzoom Digital Camera

Alexander White writes the best books. I bought his P900 manual to use with my P900, so after I got the new P1000 camera I checked every other day to see if his new book was available. It's loaded with illustrations and is well-indexed (more than six pages of index). In his books, the illustrations actually match what you see on the camera. It's not like other manuals that tell you to go to Screen 2, but don't explain how to get there. Or they say go to Screen 2 and click on Item 3 -- but when you find Screen 2, there is no Item 3. In White's books, the language is simple, clear and easy to understand. If you're going to spend $1,000 on a P1000 camera, you might as well spring for a few extra bucks to learn how to use it. I bought the PDF version for my laptop, and I also bought the print version. I prefer the print because I can sit at my kitchen table with the book and the camera, and page back and forth quickly between sections.

Covers all areas that you would use for the P1000.

I found this book very helpful in familiarizing myself with this camera. I aM a true novice. This is the first "camera" I have ever purchased. The "very small" users manual that came with the camera and it's accessories had very small printing, and was written like most tech manuals. This book was wonderful from start to finish.Large easy to read print. A great breakdown of the controls and settings. Ideas and recommendation for taking photos and additional equipment to enhance the fun. An index that is thorough and complete. I am much further along in what I can do with my P1000 because I took the time to purchase the book while waiting for my camera to arrive. I highly recommend this book to everyone who may buy the camera. As a reference, it can't be beat.

If you buy a Nikon p1000 please make sure it's sold buy Amazon or buy from Nikon directlyThis book is very informational to the p1000 with tons of helpful tips

great book on the nikon p-1000. many in depth pictures to help with understanding what you can do with this camera.

Well written and organized in a fashion that is progressive from the basic operation to the finer points. Clarifying illustrations are abundant and well placed which has prevented me from getting "lost".

I was a bit worried that I wouldn't be able to use my new Nikon p 1000 to its fullest potential being very new to this art form. The book was a easy read with great detail and in dept instructions, with photo examples. Now that I it from cover to cover I can see the value of keeping this book handy as a reference manual, and a source for creative ideas. I'd recommend it to everyone interested in the Nikon coolpix P 1000.

Purchased this guide for use of my new Nikon Coolpix P1000. It has been very helpful.
