Mastering the Nikon D7000 is a new book from Darrell Young. “The book explores the features and capabilities of the camera in a way that far surpasses the user’s manual. It guides readers through the camera features with step-by-step setting adjustments; color illustrations; and detailed how, when, and why explanations for each option.”
Mastering the Nikon D7000 retails for $34.95; however, it is currently available for $19.22 on Amazon.com or the Kindle version for $9.99.
In the wake of the recently announced models, Amazon just posted discounts for the previous generations of Mac Mini and MacBook Air models. You can get a last-gen MacBook Air starting at $834. Here’s the deal page for these products on Amazon.com.

Right now, you can get Lightroom 3 from Amazon for $179.99. For those unaware, Lightroom 3 is a RAW image processing program that makes life working with RAW files so much easier. It also carries a hefty retail price of $300, so getting it for $180 is a real bargain.
If I could only have one photo editing program, this would be it. Here’s the link to the Amazon.com deal page.
It seems that Nikon D5100 is quite hot item. Amazon is pretty thin on stock right now and appears to only have availability through third-party vendors at the moment.
