A wonderfully concise guide to what we needed to know Feb 13, 2006 By David Burstein
Jennie Bourne, my partner in producing Future of TV.net, is building an HDV studio in Long Island, and is finding this a highly practical book to help make equipment choices. We're getting extraordinary results with the (amazingly affordable) Sony HDV cameras, but lighting is proving crucial to getting the quality we need. This was recommended as a great book to learn how to get professional results.

What makes this volume special is the writer's success in explaining the key ideas in so few pages. It reminds me of classic computer manuals I've used, including "The C Programming Language" and the original "little Mac Book." Clearly covers the subject with obvious expertise and no excess wordiness.

New eqipment is coming fast and furiously, so we'll also be visiting the shows, checking the stores, and reading the magazines. However, this book is providing great perspective to priniciples that don't change.

First Step on the Professional Path Jun 23, 2000
Lighting theory and application are thoroughly discussed in plain language. This is an excellent text for new students and for the more experienced communications professional who needs to learn basic lighting for a quality video product. Techniques such as 3-point lighting, illuminating subjects in natural light (outdoors), and special effects for mood are as relevant today as they were in 1991. The only drawback is that there are some newer lighting products on the market that build on the basics. For that type of information, I suggest you consult trade manuals. This book will educate the novice to intermediate videographer. It will inspire future lighting technicians.

Lighting for Video Jul 07, 2008 By Suzin R. Daly "Sz Daly"
When this book arrived I was so disappointed. It's old fashioned and uses a doll as the subject to be lighted. It's expensive and the information is not that clear or easily understood. I sent the book back same day it arrived. Not worth the price. There are far better books at better price. The only reason it has one star, had to to get the review up.
