Synopsis

This comprehensive guide to the theory, practice and potential of cinematography should interest film makers worldwide and students on film film and video courses. It covers everything from batteries (often the Achilles heel of the camera department) through camera choice, maintenance and threading diagrams, to electricity on location, equipment checklists, film stock, lenses, light and colour. The mathematics of the cinematography section should be particularly useful, giving a wealth of information on formulae, step-by-step examples and look-up tables covering all aspects of imperial/metric conversions, electricity, exposure, film length and running times, light and optics.
