HVX200 Book

Denis Danatzko · August 29th, 2006, 11:34 AM

Took only slightly more than 2 wks. Not bad, considering I only registered on August 13. :) Now, do I continue editing the job I'm working on, or read the book...decisions, decisions. ;)

Denis,

Thanks for letting us know. Hopefully I'll get mine soon as well. Will post when I do to give others a reference on time.

Crazy...I submitted for mine many weeks ago and never heard anything back. :(

James Gleason · August 29th, 2006, 04:11 PM

Same here. I ordered it the day the post went up and I'm still waiting. ...I hate waiting.

Ken Willinger · August 29th, 2006, 08:09 PM

Mine was waiting for me in the mail today when I got back from my job. I'll be happy reading tonight!

Brian Sargent · August 30th, 2006, 08:53 PM

I registered for the book a day or two after the link was made available and it just go to me yesterday ( I live no more than 30min. from where it was being shipped from). I imagine everyone else should start seeing them arrive any day now. Of course there is no mail this coming Monday...

Another happy book owner here.

especially for someone like me, who isn't terribly savvy about the technical aspects of videogaphy and/or cinematography, e.g. frame rates and the effects/limitatoins specific to using one vs another. In fact, I find myself reading and re-reading to fully digest points made. (Not that it's unclear; the plethora of combinations is just a lot to absorb). Have learned lots already, and am only about 1/4 through the book.

If you registered a long time ago, and haven't rec'd it yet, I'd suggest following up. While I was lucky enough not to have to do that, I'd advise others to not lose-out on getting the book. Some info may be old hat to many here, but for me, it's been a big help in understanding the medium as well as the camera.

I'm still waiting...

I went to the Pany page and signed up again. There was no notice about having signed up in the past.

I wish there was a way to track your order/request.

Just buy it directly from Barry and you'll have it within a couple of days. Then when the one from Panasonic arrives, you'll have two handy copies... keep one at your desk and throw the other one in with your camera gear. It's well worth having two of them around... especially since one of them is free.
