Movie Reviews of Introduction to the Nikon D50 Digital SLR

Movie Review: Terrific for New User to Advanced
Summary: 5 Stars

A couple of years ago I bought the D50 for my wife, who loved taking pictures. She only used the Auto mode, verbalizing how she loved the pictures she got but wished she could learn to use the advanced settings and was frustrated and overwhelmed when she opened the manual each time.
Getting her this DVD and having her watch it was like opening a door into the sunshine for her. It is very clearly explained by a teacher the most basic to advanced settings in a very professional and intuitive manner to start giving the novice the confidence to advance themselves from a neophyte to one who can start to understand what they want to capture before they push the shutter button and control the camera to do it.
As a classroom teacher myself for 38 years, and loving photography, I can easily recommend this particular DVD to anyone who wants to get the most out of their D50. I would no doubt have confidence that the other videos from Blue Crane probably hit the mark for the particular camera they are instructing as well from watching this one. Good teaching is still hard to find, but this lesson is worth a lot more than the small sum being asked.

Summary of Introduction to the Nikon D50 Digital SLR

The Nikon D50 takes great shots right out of the box, but understanding the controls and features of the camera can really unleash its potential.

Each subject is contained in a separate chapter, so you can proceed at your own pace, and later come back to an individual topic.
