It's well researched and written in a way that amateur and professional film makers will benefit. Already (only had it for a week), I have learnt so much more about cameras, filming, sound recording and project planning etc., and I really thought I knew it all! It doesn't matter if you are amateur (like me), or professional, this book will serve you well. Highly recommended. Review: A MUST HAVE FOR ANY ASPIRING FILMMAKER!!! - Very informative for someone who's passionate about film.making, this book contains EVERYTHING from sound to pre-production to whatever you can think of. BE AWARE! Some of the content may be getting a bit outdated such as the actual 'film' parts, but it's always good to know about the non-digital era. It's like saying we shouldn't watch citizen kane or casablanca as they're old and we should watch Gravity. No that's not right, therefore I'm not rating this book down for that. Would recommend this! ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 186,007 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 9 in Cinematography Photography 30 in Film Reference 35 in Aerial Photography | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,169 Reviews | ## Images ![The Filmmaker's Handbook (Fifth Edition): A Comprehensive Guide for the Digital Age - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71mix+pQKtL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Any film makers Bible *by D***S on 6 February 2013* I was blown away with the volume and quality of information contained in this book.

This book is the real deal in an age of fast buck technology titles. It was an expensive Kindle title (by consideration of platform) but contains valuable content. It details the rudiments of digital filmmaking and real world experience. This discipline is important to me, its well researched and articulated, I highly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Filmmaker's Handbook: A Comprehensive Guide for the Digital Age: Fifth Edition - Film Directing: Shot by Shot - 25th Anniversary Edition: Visualizing from Concept to Screen - Making Movies --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/49012713-the-filmmakers-handbook-fifth-edition-a-comprehensive-guide-for-digital](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/49012713-the-filmmakers-handbook-fifth-edition-a-comprehensive-guide-for-digital) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
