    Great for those who know film but not 24p

    Being a seasoned cinematographer with over 20 years experience shooting film, I needed a crash course to understand what shooting in 24p meant - from pre-production to delivery - this book is the answer.

    Thin on content and weak in general

    This book is targeted at beginners who want to move from a camcorder to understanding in a broad sense the issues involved in making a more sophisticated film. It is not targeted at someone who has a prosumer or better camera as it is much too simplistic lacking any detail which you can learn from to make a good 24p video.
