Review: I purchased this book as a graduation gift for a friend in film school
and then I bought myself a copy. I've been using it in production
meetings to discuss equipment options with my crew and I plan to add it
to the list of required reading for all of my production interns.
This book really covers an incredible spectrum of production tools
available to filmmakers and video users alike.

Review: Sometimes knowing the options is half the battle. "Dream Gear" is a well organized, concise yet comprehensive, quick read that covers a lot of territory when it comes to production needs. It's especially helpful for budget minded filmmakers who want high production values but don't have the finances to pay for them. There are in fact quite a few affordable gadgets that might give your film that extra soemthing that might separate it from the pack. Easy to read with an appropriate amount of detail.

Review: This book is full of toys that I didn't even knew existed. I was really impressed with the depth of product and information that they gathered in this book. There is some great gear in this book that I have to get. It contained things that I never would have imagined. And they will help speed up and drastically improve my next film shoot. Good find.
