Review: WDC contributor and owner of the Photo-I website (www.photo-i.co.uk), Vincent Oliver points his video camera at the Nikon D40x for this new DVD. This guide is ideal for those who struggle to get to grips with camera manuals. Vincent guides us through the D40x’s main features and then takes to the streets and fields of the UK to demonstrate how to use the camera in real life situations.

Tackling exposure, focus, lenses and more, the guide is a useful tool not only for owners of the D40x but anyone who wants to improve their handling of a DSLR. Vincent’s easy manner and clear instructions are simple to follow and the production is functional and attractive. It’s a dry subject to put across, but Vincent keeps it flowing and the clear video graphics are very professional and easy to follow. While dedicated to the D40x, the guide should prove useful to owners of other Nikon cameras such as the D40 and D60, and to those wanting a basic understanding of photographic technique.
