Cameras
This is only a partial list of common cameras an independent filmmaker is most likely to use. It is
also still under construction and only has a few links. (Guess which ones they are and win fabulous
non-existent prizes!)
Specs and diagrams are taken from The Professional Cameraman's Handbook by Verne and Sylvia Carlson,
unless otherwise noted.
Photos are temporarily unavailable until copyright issues get resolved.
