Nikon D80 inBrief Laminated Reference Card Pamphlet – February 23, 2007

A pretty nice quick reference. Please note that this is NOT a replacement for your user manual. It is only a quick refresher guide to give you a quick reminder on which buttons you need to push to get what you want. It is far from complete reference and those that take a star of for it missing stuff are kidding themselves. It does not claim to be a full reference guide. However, if you're not always using the camera and forget how to adjust certain settings this thing is perfect to keep in your bag. This product is not meant for the pro user, but rather targets the beginners and intermediates with easy to follow quick steps to change picture settings.Hope this helps.

I purchased this for my Nikon D80, this is an excellent camera and has way more capabilities than I realized. For $10, I am getting thousands more out of my camera. It's laminated to prevent wear and folds nicely for your camera bag. A great tool, a great buy!

I am a happy new owner of a Nikon D80. Having come from the film world this wonderful camera can seem intimidating. The manual provided with the camera is sometimes difficult to navigate. Presto! There is this beautifully laid out quick reference card. Its a gem. It is color coded and clearly organized. Quick and relevant core information is right there. It even helps folks like me go back to the Nikon manual. I recommend this card without any reservations at all. Get one!John FentressEugene, Oregon

I've inherited my hubby's D80 & I remember buying this laminated reference for his camera bag. I'm only on the first page but already I find the info confusing. The info given doesn't match up to the box of info it refers to.For instance, under "White Balance, ISO, Image size/quality (the purple page), the box lists settings of Auto, Incandescent, Flourescent, Sunlight, Flash, Cloudy, Shade, Kelvin & PRE (preset).Yet, the examples given of photos of a parrot using 4 different settings speaks of 2 settings that I could not match to the setting in the box. (one was "setting for daylight", the other was "tungsten setting") Neither of those is mentioned in the box.I am a beginner, but have used this camera for over a year. I now want to learn more about the settings when not using the "auto" settings, so I need to read the books and refer to this nice little fold-out card of info.I just wish authors/publishers would proof-read by giving the materials to someone who doesn't already know everything so that person can find the obvious errors to edit. This one is a no-brainer. I should not have to go outside of the card to figure out what tungsten is, and the "daylight setting" used for one parrot shot is likely the "sunlight" setting…but it could also be the "auto setting".Yes, I'm nit-picking, but I just find that even fiction & non-fiction books are loaded with errors that proof-reading is missing..I will update as I continue reading, but hope these isn't more to report..

The Laminated Reference Card for the Nikon D80 is just what I needed to keep in my photo bag for a "quick" reminder. If I haven't used the camera for some time I tend to forget settings for special situations such as a shaded area or other unique situation. The card is well made and the lamination should help it to last a long time.GHGUSA

JUST RECEIVED IT AND LOOKED IT OVER AND IT'S EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED BECAUSE I CAN'T REMEMBER ALL THE SETTINGS AND I DON'T WANT TO CARRY THE MANUAL AROUND. THE ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE WOULD BE THAT IT COULD BE IN A BOOK FORMAT SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO UNFOLD THE THING OTHERWISE IT WOULD BE 5 STARS.

Learning how to use my camera wasn't the easiest thing in the world. I read, underlined, and made notes and tabs in my manual. This, however, I carry in my bag and it reminds me what I'm supposed to be doing. Some simple things, I learned from this card rather than searching it out in the manual. It made learning my camera so much easier, and it's just a fold-up card I stick in the pocket of my camera bag and refer to when I need it.

Even when I think I know how to use my D-80 there are times when I will use this handy reference guide. It fits easy into the gadget bag and when I need to know how to use the camera instead of looking thru a thick manual this small and easy to use reference guide is the best. I highly recommend this to anyone.
