I am completely ignorant when it comes to cameras, lenses, and such, but I’d love to learn basic vocabulary, terminology, components, conventions, and such. I know some terms (dolly, tilt, pan, zoom, crane, etc.), but that is as far as my knowledge goes.
Where is a good place, or what is a good way, to learn these things?
I hear filmmakers talk about cameras and lenses and stuff all the time, but it’s completely over my head. I have no idea what’s going on. But I want to know ...
I know I can easily find tons of stuff in books and using Google, but I just wanted to know if you all know any tried-and-true resources that you'd highly recommend. I lack the ability to distinguish them ... for now!
