The comprehensive, detailed, and ultimate reference guide for Panasonic's HMC150 camcorder is now shipping: "The HMC150 Book" (with an included CD-ROM). This book and CD package presents a comprehensive examination of the camera and all its features, settings, and modes, the tapeless workflow, working with AVCHD footage, and tutorials on some of the most common situations users find themselves facing. The book de-mystifies what all the features of the camera actually do, as well as explaining when and why you'd want to use each setting for the best results. An extensive section of tutorials and essays teach a range of subjects from the simple to the advanced, including explanations on how to get the shallow depth-of-field look, how to control strobing and shoot 24P (or 25P) for the best results, and how to use the waveform monitor and vectorscope. The book is jam-packed with photos and screenshots throughout its 216 full-color, high-quality glossy pages. Covers the USA/NTSC HMC150, the EU/PAL HMC151E, and the Asia/Pacific HMC152EN.
Also included is a CD-ROM which contains all the scene file explanation pictures and sample scene file photographs in uncompressed format, as well as 24 SCENE FILES that you can copy to an SD card and upload into your camera. Scene Files for 60Hz (USA) and 50Hz (Europe and Asia/Pacific) are included.

This review is from: The HMC150 Book (Spiral-bound)
If you purchased an amazing new Panasonic HMC150, then this book is the place to really learn the how, why's and when's to use all of it's features. AVCHD is a great new codec, shouldn't you have an amazing walk through of all the settings and functions that this camera can shoot with? I really can't recommend it enough. Clear, well written and it has a nice spiral binder that enables the book to lay flat anywhere. Nice work Barry.

If you own the HMC-150, this book is essential,

This review is from: The HMC150 Book (Spiral-bound)
I own 2 HMC-150 cameras and shoot weddings with them. I thought I had a good grasp on how to get the best results from the cameras based on the manual, but after reading Barry's book, I learned so many things about my cameras that were not in the manual or not explained well enough in the manual for me to fully grasp. I take this book with me now and it has proven to be my cheat sheet. The scene files included on the disc are not only great to use, but also a great way to learn how to make your own. I highly recommend this book to HMC-150 camera operators.

The HMC 150 Book an essential tool for videography,

This review is from: The HMC150 Book (Spiral-bound)
I am just starting out in videography and this book has given me the essentials to make good choices. Barry Green uses a very pragmatic approach to camera operation. All of the features of the Panasonic HMC 150 are clearly explained in a very concise easy to understand manner. He clearly explains terms and functions. I have read it cover to cover, and refer back to it often.
I would recommend this book to anyone who owns a camcorder. While some of what is detailed is specific to the HMC 150, there is a lot of information that is common to all camcorder operation.
