Reviews of the previous edition:

"This book covers one aspect of the daily life of a camera operator and it does so very competently and thoroughly. It should be in the bookcase of every operator."
Tod Litherland, Television Lighting

"If you are approaching our craft at the beginning of your career, this book is indispensable... The industry should thank Peter for producing this 'instant standard'."
Tony Grant, Zerb

"A must for artists, cinematographers, and writers alike... This book proves that composition can be learned and/or taught."
