Q: WHAT ARE THE ASSIGNMENTS ALL ABOUT?

A: At the end of most of the chapters, you will ﬁ nd shooting assignments, where I give

you some suggestions as to how you can apply the lessons of the chapter to help reinforce

everything you just learned. Let's face it—using the camera is much more fun than reading

about it, so the assignments are a way of taking a little break after each chapter and hav-

ing some fun.

Q: SHOULD I READ THE BOOK STRAIGHT THROUGH OR CAN

I SKIP AROUND FROM CHAPTER TO CHAPTER?

A: Here's the easy answer: yes and no. No, because the ﬁ rst four chapters give you the

basic information that you need to know about your camera. These are the building blocks

for using the camera. After that, yes, you can move around the book as you see ﬁ t because

those chapters are written to stand on their own as guides to speciﬁ c types of photography

or shooting situations. So you can bounce from portraits to shooting landscapes and then

maybe to a little action photography. It's all about your needs and how you want to address

them. Or, you can read it straight through. The choice is up to you.

Q: I DON'T SEE ANY CHAPTERS DEVOTED TO VIDEO. DO YOU COVER THAT?

A: I know that one of the reasons you probably bought the D5000 was its ability to capture

video. I have covered some basic video setup information in Chapter 2, but I really wanted

the focus of this book to center around the photographic capabilities and possibilities.

Don't worry, though; read the next Q&A and I think you'll be happy.

Q: IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW BEFORE GETTING STARTED?

A: In order to keep the book short and focused, I had to be pretty selective about what I

put in each chapter. The problem is that there is a little more information that might come

in handy after you've gone through all the chapters. So as an added value for you, I have

written two bonus chapters, called "Pimp My Ride" and "D5000 Video: Beyond the Basics."

The ﬁ rst chapter is full of information on photo accessories that will assist you in making

better photographs. In it, you will ﬁ nd my recommendation for things like ﬁ lters, tripods,

and much more. The second chapter will lead you through some video tips and techniques

to make your D5000 videos even better. To access the bonus chapters, just log in or join

peachpit.com (it's free), then enter the book's ISBN. After you register the book, a link to

the bonus chapters will be listed on your Account page under Registered Products.

Q: IS THAT IT?

A: One last thought before you dive into the ﬁ rst chapter. My goal in writing this book has

been to give you a resource that you can turn to for creating great photographs with your

Nikon D5000. Take some time to learn the basics and then put them to use. Photography,

like most things, takes time to master and requires practice. I have been a photographer for

25 years and I'm still learning. Always remember, it's not the camera but the person using

it who makes beautiful photographs. Have fun, make mistakes, and then learn from them.

In no time, I'm sure you will transition from a person who takes snapshots to a photographer

who makes great shots.
