Product Description
The Nikon D40 / D40x has many controls and settings designed to allow you to make a perfect exposure. But remembering where they are and how the features work together can be daunting.
If you decide to carry the user manual in your bag but finding the answer to your question can be a frustrating experience. That is why Blue Crane Digital developed an abbreviated field reference guide to your digital SLR.
The inBrief reference card is a laminated, foldable guide that answers most camera operation questions quickly and easily. The information is arranged logically for ease of use.
The cover panel of each inBrief displays a labeled line drawing of the camera, and a color-coded index to the rest of the panels. For instance, if you have a question about white balance, just check the index, then turn to the purple panel. An overview of the information on each of the eight panels is listed below:
Cover: Annotated line drawing, General index
Blue: Viewfinder, Control panel, and Monitor displays
Red: Camera functions by exposure mode; Flash information
Lime: Focus; Drive Modes; Self-timer
Yellow: Exposure; Metering; Bracketing
Purple: White balance; ISO; Image size/quality
Orange: Displaying images; Resetting the camera
Green: Custom settings
The inBrief reference card is professionally printed on 10 point card stock, and is laminated on each side for long wear and protection from the elements. When folded, the dimensions are 5.5 by 4.25 inches. It fits neatly into the outside pocket of your camera bag for instant access.
Once you have an inBrief, you can leave your manual at home.

 Laminated Reference Card April 16, 2008

The card is not complete, for example, I did not find the timer command detailed in the card.
Good quick reference February 18, 2008

This is a good quick reference that I carry in my bag - it takes less room than a book and has the basic information that I sometimes need to be reminded of. I've used it a few times - it comes in handy.
I do wish that the lcd monitor shown on the card was the "classic" format rather than the "graphic" format.
All in all, this is an item that you would miss if you didn't have it.

Isn't as informative as I had hoped. I think for the price it should have more info in it.
Pretty good product November 21, 2007

Contains a lot of readily useful information, but not as I as much I had imagined.
 This will go wherever my camera does November 2, 2007

I've only had this laminated reference card for a few days, but in that short time it's proven to be very helpful. I have an excellent book about my camera - Nikon D40/D40x Digital Field Guide - which is easy enough to put into the car with me. But this little fold-out card literally fits into the smaller, fitted bag in which I like to carry my D40x whenever possible. Because it's right there at the moment I'm taking pictures, it's been invaluable as I learn how to use my first digital SLR camera. Just one example: its chart with thumbnail statements of what each flash setting means.
I suppose that if I'm very smart and very lucky, someday I might know so much that I won't need to consult either my "Field Guide" book or this reference card. But until then, this card goes wherever the camera does.
