American Cinematographer Video Manual
Written

by Frank Beacham, with contributions from field experts

The blitz of constantly changing video tech¬
nology has made an understanding of electronic

cinematography. To answer that need, the ASC Press

book which will undoubtedly take its place next to
the oft-consulted American Cinematographer
Manual in every cameraperson's kit bag - the
American Cinematographer Video Manual.
