Video goes through the basic functions of the Nikon Camera. It anything, it did help me understand the different symbols that the camera uses and their function
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
For someone new to the advanced technology of digital photography, this dvd is very good. For a professional, there is no new information provided.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
Good introduction to SLR use.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
I liked this DVD, talked more about he D40/D40x and I have a D60, very close to the same, but some differences and they did not really hit on them.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
The DVD helped me a lot understating the basics of a DSLR. It focused on how to use the Point-and-Shoot modes of the camera like the AUTO, POTRAIT, LANDSCAPE, CHILD, SPORTS, CLOSE-UP and NIGHT POTRAIT. With the given information, new users of a DSLR, like me, can enjoy our new camera and start shooting...
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
This has great content for the new D40 D40x and D60 user. It is well designed for someone being introduced to digital photography for the first time. It walks through good examples of each metering mode and many of the extra features of the cameras. I would highly recommend this to anyone thinking of getting one of these cameras.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
This was a very low level introduction that showed you how to do very simple tasks such as turn the camera on, insert the memory card, and zoom in and out.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
After trying to learn my new D60 from the enclosed manual, I was delighted to discover the easy to understand presentation of its features on this DVD. With simple instruction and actual photography, I learned more in a few minutes than I had in hours of trying to figure the camera out on my own. Great resource and one that can be repeated as needed...in part or the whole thing.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
This DVD is a basic intro on how to use the D40, D40x, or D60. It's really like a companion to the instruction manual that comes with the camera, showing you how to navigate the menus, controls, and options on the camera to achieve the photographs you want. The DVD isn't advanced enough to let you skip reading the manual, but it's a great way to see some of the techniques and options the camera offers shown in color, vividly on the screen (not always that clear in the B&W manual with cartoonish drawings).
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
This bonus DVD was a very good overview of how to use the basic functions of a Nikon DSLR. The photographer/narrator was excellent and the production was helpful. There would be nothing here for the professional, but it provides good orientation for the novice.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
Absolutely Awesome! I am new at photography and it helped me to become aquainted with my new SLR. I was able to become familiar with all of the functions of my new camera immediately. Much better than reading the instruction manual.

Too many unless parts of the video. I don't need to know about photo sharing website or software editing programs that did not come with the camera. If those sections were cut out more time could be spent talking about photography.

good for digital slr starters
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):

If you're a newbie this is a good starting point for your digital photography hobby. However, it lacks the technical details that you're looking for if you're an experienced photographer.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
good dvd good information, maybe the should focus more on each camera, say if your buying a D40 than included tips with just that camera, more focus towards the product you buying.

This DVD will show you how to use your camera without having to sit down and hunt through the book with very small type. The only thing is that you will probably need to watch it several times to learn about all the functions of the camera.

Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
If you're new to Nikon digital cameras, the operation of the camera is not nearly as intuitive as the owner's manual makes it seem. This DVD provides all the information needed to make those controls intuitive.
The Instructor comes from the perspective that you as the viewer have no knowledge of the camera or how it works. And works his way into describing the details necessary for taking professional photographs.
It shows where all the bells and whistles are located and how they work together to provide crisp, clear, professional level photographs, not just merely snapshots.
In fact some of the information on the DVD isn't even in the owner's manual. So if you're a newcomer to Nikon digital photography or an old hand discovering a new tool, this DVD will bring you up to speed on the Nikon D-40, D-40X or the
D-60 in very short order. The instructor not only tells you how to use the functions, he actually demonstrates how to do it, and then shows you the resultant picture.
I found the DVD very useful, and enjoyed watching the material. This DVD is professionally filmed and produced rather than just a hodgepodge of information stuffed together. Nikon, job well done.
Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):

Comments about Nikon Nikon School Presents: Fast, Fun and Easy Great Digital Pictures II (DVD):
