5 Stars Great Purchase for Beginners or Intermediate Level Photographers
There is plenty of learning material on the Nikon D5000 in this Nikon School DVD. The instructor is patient, speaks clearly, comes across being very friendly and informative, and you can see his passion for photography by the way he talks about photography. At first, I thought I saw this movie and paid for a DVD which was a free video download from the Nikon website. The first couple of scenes are free on the Nikon website, the rest of the DVD is not. Even the free scenes have extended footage on the DVD only. I would recommend to watch the movie several times to really absorb the material – I could feel my brain getting full about half-way through the video and decided to split it up over two days and to give myself a chance to practice what I saw. There are plenty of practical examples in the video too, once you watch the entire video, you can just skip to the section you care to watch again through the menu. This video has become a useful reference for me.

4 Stars Very good start
I am not new to digital photography nor am I new to SLR photography but I am new to digital SLR photography. This DVD is a nice start on using the Nikon D5000. The DVD gets you using the camera and then begin to flesh the incredible features. I highly recommend it.

5 Stars An excellent tutorial on digitsal photography
Although this cd is for the Nikon D5000, it is an excellent tutorial on digital photography in general.
