Recenzje

"Those involved in video recording, distribution, processing or replay will find this book an invaluable reference tool on all aspects of video signal measurement and diagnosis...Video is often seen as a black art - best left to "those who know". Hodges, however, has dispelled much of the mystery about the subject in this well-written, copiously illustrated book and it is well worth the shelf space." - Lighting and Sound International
