This best-selling Magic Lantern Guide is updated to include the new Nikon Photo Secretary accessory and new Nikkor lenses! With complete information on how to take full advantage of each feature on the Nikon N90s, it's a must-have for anyone owning or contemplating the purchase of Nikon's top-of-the-line N series camera. Sections cover the autofocus system, advanced metering system, exposure modes, and flash photography. Know your camera's body thoroughly--its LCD Panel, Button Cluster, Handgrip, High-Eyepoint Viewfinder, and the Viewfinder Display. Get full information on the power supply--including battery drain, testing, and tips--film handling, motorized film transport, exposure modes, selecting a lens, and programming your camera. There's even advice on compatible accessories! Photos, in both color and black and white with detailed captions, show what your camera can capture. You'll admire an incredible shot of a Scottish landscape; trees blowing in the wind as a storm rages; candid snaps of people taken during a trip; and a clear, crisp image of intricate architectural details. What a great accessory for every field trip and holiday! Silver Pixel 192 pages (16 in color), 50 b/w illus., 5 x 7 1/2.

Lantern Guide is good if no manual is available January 11, 2007 The Lantern Guide is good if you can't get your hands on the original Nikon manual. There's probably no need to own both. For a camera as intricate as the N90s, some type of instruction book is a virtual necessity, especially if this is your first autofocus SLR.
The Lantern Guide does speak more critically of some of the shortcomings of the matrix metering system but stops short of saying that there are times when you should just pull out an incident light meter if you have one.
Not worth the money... March 25, 2005 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
There is no depth to any of the information with regard to the camera's features. A total disappointment! If you got a manual, you don't need this so called "guide".

the magic lanter guides are poor--they should be much better--they should get a better editor and a better tech writor from one of the photo magazines to work with them
Not only a bad translation!!! June 21, 2001 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am from Switzerland and, of course, bought this guide in german. It is not due to the bad translation into english that the book lacks information, clarity and useful information. It is simply a rather hasty written review of an excellent photoworkhorse that had to be thrown onto the bookmarket as soon as poss. What a pity because the camera is fine!

It didn't provide any more information than the instruction manual that came with the camera did. Only advantage is the size and shape of the book which feels nicer than holding the manual.
