American Cinematographer Video Manual

Rating:
Summary: The ultimate cinema manual book
Review: A very comprensive book manual that take explanations about everything about cinema/video. Lot of tecnics aspects, like cameras (FOVs, lenss, aspect ratios), lights, photography etc. The best reference manual for shooters who strive for great looking video.

Rating:
Summary: OUT OF DATE
Review: While this book still has value, it is a crime that it is still being sold given that video technology has expanded so rapidly...no doubt, no one can keep up, but while this is an exceptional book for 94 through say, 98...it is way behind now...
you'd be far better off buying a more uptodate manual and hopefully someone will update this one...avoid paying anything for this other than at a garage sale...
