Will Earl Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 What is it you want to know about cameras? If you have specific questions you could try googling them or if you've searched and come up with nothing or perhaps don't understand something, then ask away here. If you know nothing about cameras then start off with the basic mechanics of a camera and work from there... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera Google, Wikipedia and the rest of the Internet are your free resources. They may be wrong in some places but you do get what you pay for. I also recommend getting a book on cinematography (see David's suggestion) or photography - the principles are very much the same. If your after free then try your local library or if your willing to spend a bit of money then try some second hand book stores. You can also buy a second hand film SLR camera and start practising by yourself, there have been a few threads here on doing this. If there are courses in basic photography where you live then that's another option. I'm sure there are even DVD instructional videos available if you googled for them. I hope that's of some help.
