What Is Covered in This Book

Here is a glance as what is in each chapter:

Chapter 1: Fundamentals of DSLR Filmmaking is key. Whether you are person familiar shooting with standard video cameras, a still photographer, or a filmmaker, there will be overlap in equipment and vernacular. However, there are some unique processes, gear, and workflows that apply specifically to shooting video on DSLR cameras.

Chapter 2: Gear and Recommendations answers what camera is the best fit for you, what gear is available to help shoot your next film, and our recommendations for what you should use for your next project.

Chapter 3: Testing and Custom Settings helps you control the look of the image, which is a first-order goal of the filmmaker. Accurate color, the ability to create a “look,” and the proper way to set up the cameras are all part of the DSLR workflow.
