Title: Them Hogan's Df Guide
Post by: Kenneth Rich on December 27, 2017, 18:01:57
Reading the post re Thom's guide for the D5 makes me ask the question: Does a Thom Hogan  Df guide exist yet?

No.  Something makes me think he is not planning a Df guide.

His review of the Df was positive overall [Recommended], with his usual reservations and comments

There really isn't much out there for Df guides. The only one listed on Amazon gets really mixed reviews. I think I shall go it alone and ask any questions that I may have online. At the end of the day, it is mostly like a modern Nikon DSLR anyway, which we are all very familiar with.

I have this one: found it sufficient to get to settings that are absent or hidden in the Nikon manual

I tried to search for a book by Thom Hogan as I'd used his book for the D700. Since he didn't have one I got one called "Nikon Df Experience" by Douglas Klostermann. Its not the same as something Thom would write but its better than the book that came with the camera.
