Beautiful beads.......2002-08-30
Following this is a section using clear line drawings of findings such as clasps, wires, and tools, with explanations of how they are used. Line drawings are also used to show techniques, especially a variety of ways to finish the ends with clasps and knots. For me, this is the most valuable part of the book for learning techniques new to me. The directions are mostly good, but there are some that are difficult to follow just by reading. It works better to get everything you need and just start following the instructions step by step until you figure it out. My previous beading experience helped me understand the instructions better.
The last section of the book has an assortment of projects making necklace and earring sets, with line drawings, photos and written instructions. The designs are beautiful but too extravagant for me, and being published a few years ago, a little outdated in style. However, the techniques shown can be used to redesign and create pieces suited to one's tastes.
The most informative, simplified & beautiful bead book ever........1999-02-05

Garbage........2005-02-24
Not Quite As Good As Earlier Edition.......2003-11-18
It is disappointing to note the absence of lighting equipment details (photometric data and equipment range) in particular. The focus (pun intended) seems to be more towards cameras, lenses, filters and film.
My 4th edition manual has a better balance in terms of verbiage, tables and graphs, and covers lighting equipment in some detail. Although outdated in some areas, the 4th edition will still remain my primary source of information.
The "novelisation" of this 8th edition has, to a degree, defeated the real purpose of the manual, the provision of readily accessable data via tables and graphs.
If you are after lighting equipment details, then look elsewhere, if not, then consider purchasing this latest edition.
The Cinematographer's Bible.......2003-10-11
Essentially the first 100 pages deal with all the different types of motion picture cameras, their internal mechanisms, technical details and threading paths. Then the book goes on to dealing with motion picture film itself, the various brands that are available, differences between black and white, color and a bit about the development process of each one. Again, technically detailed. There is also very valuable charts on film lengths and running times according to fps. The lens section is very technical covering the different types of lenses and the most important focal length, distance to subject, measuring charts that is really the most widely used part of this book. There is a massive section on filters, exposure and emulsion testing.
The book then deals with lighting and covers the various aspects of lighting types, bulbs, filters and exposure techniques, all highly technical in nature with references to charts and illustrations. The book ends with a coverage of visual special effects that can be done with the motion picture camera and other special techniques that the cinematographer will need to know about.
You will need this book if you are shooting on film, end of story. If you are looking for a manual that teaches cinematography then choose CINEMATOGRAPHY by Kris Malkiewicz instead. As a note, there is a lot of new digital cinematography cameras on the up and coming that work on digital video tape and not film and many new filmmakers may be advised to check out this route as a cheaper and less costly way of shooting their first film.
