Currently, Killer Camera Rigs That You Can Build will only be available in PDF form as an ebook. We had to make kind of a big choice around here; as the last print run was running low, we had to make a choice of raising the price of the book or offering an electronic edition. The cost of paper has gone through the roof, not to mention the cost of shipping a couple of tons of finished books to our offices in Los Angeles from the printers in midwest. This would have raised the cost of Killer Camera Rigs north of the $50 mark. Lord knows we are about saving filmmaker's money around here, so that just didn't seem like a good option. We are currently working on the 3rd edition of Killer Camera Rigs that will be available from Focal Press in September of 2010 in a print edition only. Here some questions I'm sure we'll be asked about the ebook version:
Can I print the book? Of course you can! In fact, I think this is a better option than the print version because you'll be able to print out, say, the materials list and take it along with you to the hardware store without having to haul around the entire book.
Is is available as a download? Yes, but the download is not automatic. You'll get an email for the download within 24 hours of Paypal confirming your payment-- excluding weekends and holidays.
If you have any questions about the ebook version, just shoot me an e-mail: dan@dvcamerarigs.com
(CA orders will be charged 9.25% sales tax)
