You've read Nikon's own manual on the D90, you've purchased a couple of "How To" DVDs and you're still not maxing out on all the camera's features. Welcome to David Busch's D90 guide! It's all here and written to understand and enjoy. You'll love your D90 even more when you absorb this wonderful effort by Busch.
David Busch's Nikon D90 camera book from Amazon.com March 3, 2010

Very good book with great detailed pictures of the camera and detailed explanations. Much better than the manual that came with the camera.
 Finally a real book on the D90 February 26, 2010

The book was great. I had a video but this book was much better. Easy to understand and great format.
When you buy a D90, buy this book with it! February 20, 2010

I received a D90 kit for Christmas from my beautiful wife. The next day I bought this book. If I hadn't...I'd still be trying to figure out how to utilize all the functions and capabilities of this extremely powerful camera (and I'm a techno-savvy geek!) The D90 is my first foray into DSLRs, and while I was a fairly decent film photography enthusiast back in the day (a pretty good darkroom and lots of purely manual shooting), the plunge into DSLR's has a rather deep end in the pool. Forget trying to figure out the manual...just put it in your kit bag for later and pick up David Busch's book. It's well organized, explains in very well written terms how everything on your new camera works (without being dumbed-down and frustratingly simple like many similar books are), and goes beyond the camera itself to give you shooting tips, post-editing strategies, future lens, accessory, and software advice, and the confidence to start taking great pictures within a few hours of perusing the pages.
This book should be your first purchase after buying the camera itself.
The Definitive Guide for the Nikon D90 February 18, 2010

This book, at roughly 400 pages, is easily the most comprehensive and definitive guide for the Nikon D90 camera. It contains depth and information not found elsewhere, and, overall, is accurate. I found a typo here and there, but they were few and far between, and thoroughly documented as errata at the author's web site.(Most have been fixed for later printings, as my copy of this book was relatively "clean.")
Instead, I have focused on the rich supply of useful information in this book, which includes an extensive discussion of why you should use any particular option or setting -- and what happens when you do. Most of us will eventually learn all the puzzling setup choices available in the menus. This book helps you learn the best settings quickly. It also helps you learn about photography, such as using histograms and lens selection, all related specifically to the D90 (unlike more general books.) I finally understand autofocus, thanks to an entire chapter about it in the second half of this book.
There are pocket sized guides you can take with you as you shoot. As they have said, Nikon provides one of those right in the box with the camera. But if you want to go beyond the basics and really understand your camera, you should buy this book.
