    Michael, I've been a serious hobbyist for over 40 years, but as I'm sure you know, life and work often get in the way. Thank you for the best tutorial, by far, I've seen. You saved me my most valuable resource, my time. Thank you! I'll be buying your video training.

    I’ve been a journalist for 30 years. Photography is always been a big part of my work. I’ve done a ton of sports, etc. I haven’t done much recently and I am renting a D850 to take my nephew, senior photos. So I thought I would get a crash course in this camera and your videos have been so amazingly helpful. Thank you so much.

    Michael, THE BEST tutorial on the D850 I have seen, and I have watched dozens, I would go so far as to say the best tutorial I have seen on any subject! I have a Nikon background: D7000, D70s, F3 and F so I'm not a stranger, I have a degree in engineering (need I say more about what I look for in a tutorial :-). I am getting up in years, been retired over 15 years, and my memory isn't what it once was and I just got a new D850 that to me is the best , although I've only had it 1 week. My health and the pandemic have kept me inside much of the time for a few years so your tutorials are PERFECT for me! They are extremely professional, intuitive and concise. YOU have great communication skills and move at a pace that is easily understandable and know exactly which points to slow the pace, even repeat. I'm anxious to see what else you offer as I see this was produced over 3 years ago. And this all started when I searched "How do I get the single focus square back to the center on a Nikon D850"! Thank you and I wish you every success which you

    There are many videos out there that talk about the Nikon D850. I have found that I rely on 3 of them and this is 4th and one of the best. I have learned more about focusing my D850 in the last 13 minutes than I did in over hours of other videos. This is well done and I plan on reviewing more of your videos and possibly buying products that you support or put out for purchase. Thank you.
