Description: The British Cinematographer traces the development of the art and craft of the cinematographer in Britain from the first cameramen with their primitive hand-cranked box cameras to the electronic sophistication of the present. Key moments examined in some depth include the coming of sound, the impact and subsequent use of colour and the widescreen revolution.

The book features over fifty in-depth career profiles of major British cinematographers - many of whom have been personally interviewed by the author - with accompanying filmographies.
