Product Description

Digital SLR cameras come with 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.

Customer Reviews

D200 Reference Card
Pro level digital cameras have extensive menus and controls. Functions and controls not frequently used can be difficult to remember how to access. This Reference Card is easy to carry and provides enough information to find a menu or button without the user's manual. The card's quality, design, and graphics warrant four stars but I have not used it enough to give it a five star rating.

Very useful guide
Great handy guide to a fantastic camera. Not too detailed with just enough information at hand on 1 single fold up laminted sheet.

NIKON D200 LAMINATED REFERENCE CARD
The card tries to include too much information in a very tiny format. A more selective choice of topics and print in much larger sizes would make the card much more useful for field work.

I don't carry it with me in the field because it is so hard to read and so cluttered.

I wouldn't have purchased it if I had had a chance to examine it first.
