7-22-12. I recently bought the Nikon D3200 camera and am slowly (time constraints) learning about the terriffic tool. This is my first DSLR and I needed a lot of help, as struggling throught the Nikon User Manual (requires downloading from Nikon Website) is tedious and ...well...boring. I'm a technical writer by profession and appreciate well constructed and edited literature. David Busch's Nikon D3200 Guide to Digital SLR Photography is one of the best instruction manuals I have read. I'm only on chapter three but have learned so much, principly due to the personable writing style in which David presents a technical subject. He adds his own creative insight and comments that make the details easy to remember and therefore more effective to apply in using the Nikon D3200. I'm excited about reading the remainder of the book and actually using the tool to produce some thoughtful photographs that are more technically competent than those I have done in prior years with point and shoot equipment. Thanks David.7-23-12. David's recommendations for D3200 sensor cleaning are "spot-on" (play on words intentional). After much research of the tools and techniques in Chapter 13, I was able to purchase the all best tools and supplies from Amazon for $132. As he advises, do your "homework" before you tackle sensor cleaning, but you can do it carefully. Following his advice you can avoid much dust contamination of the sensor, but on occasions it will need to be done and camera service centers are expensive with results no better than yours (if you do it well). Great advice David.
