our city Hyderabad having population of more than 7.5 million people and make films every year more than 150 to 200. In India movie production has reached 900 movies a year. our states share is 16-22% of total cinema making in India. in our state 99% movie making on film based cameras, even in this digital area also why small projects also made on film cameras, no body knows that, its another issue at all this time. my problem is that, I am interested in cinematography,so one day i searched for good cinematography books to buy at famous book stalls and book fairs, but i can't find any cinematography books, i am shocked to notice that hardly find any material about cinema field. whereas in USA and Europe most of the purchases made on internet, but in India small percentages of purchases made through internet. even though people use Internets, only for product availability and to know prices. if i purchase from amazon. com and others, but it is too costly for me because those are shipped from USA so i have pay cash in $ and also shipping cost too as compared to cost of books if available here. if any people faced same kind of problem in India before this, what they have done to purchase any cinema related material at all. i need suggestions of those people and other seniors from other parts of world also in finding those materials. thanks in advance for your valued ideas. and also suggest me only two or three best books to buy.
