Product Description
The Nikon D200 is a hugely popular digital SLR camera that puts terrific power into the user’s hands. But the instrument’s sheer complexity can also leave them feeling bewildered and frustrated. This hands-on guide strips down the model’s immense and at times dazzling specification into logical and understandable chunks, enabling photographers to get the most from their camera in every situation. Subjects covered include a complete and detailed description of functions and features, a comprehensive review of lenses and accessories, advice on camera care, tips on using the D200 with a Mac or PC, and professional tips for close-up and macro photography.

After using my D200 for over 2 years, I decided to buy a camera guide book to see if I missed anything else from reading the original manual. This PIP Expanded Guide Book was a well spent purchase.
The paper used is top grade high stock; well designed layout is "easy" on the readers eyes. The workflow organization is well thought of, text quite succinct, concise and very clear. Supplemental photos to topics are in full color; tips and hint are higlighted in shaded boxes.
An easy reading book, one can read either from beginning to end or just jump into a specific topic or section. The book size is perfect to bring along with you anywhere, even while sipping your brew at your favorite coffee house hang out; it even turned out to be a great prop that started a "Hey are you a photographer?" conversation.
This is a great resource to "fill in gaps" between reading the original and bland user manual and your actual hands on experience using the D200.
However, this can also work as an initial guide for new users. I gave my D70s to my sister who is trying out DSLRs for the 1st time. Since I could not locate the user manual (although you can get a PDF format version of all the Nikon camera manuals), I also purchased the D70 version of this book for her to use. From my observations, the book proves to be a more valuable guide for her than if she just got the user manual.
I highly recommend this (and any other) PIP publisher camera guide. At least, I can vouch the Nikon series books. I will definitely acquire the D300 book when I get the D300... and a maybe a D3 book for the D3 someday soon.
For samples of photos taken with the D200, see [...].

I bought the nikon d200 expanded guide, because the d300 was unavailable, and the users manual (printed in Thailand) provided by Nikon is difficult to handle and to read.
The expanded guide was vey helpfull.

If you own a Nikon D200 you should have this book. Using this book and the Nikon Owners Manual, you're ready to learn some really useful tools/tecniques.
Especially useful for new ownwers and photographers who are moving up from any of the Nikon D series cameras.
