From dustjacket: With the increasing popularity of motion-picture cameras, problems have arisen which are quite new to the amateur as well as to the more professional taker of photographs. Mr. Lutz answers almost every conceivable question about the actual mechanics of taking the picture, as well as the developing, cutting of films, and other matters of obvious interest. The chapter titles, "Lenses and Images", "Studio and Location", "Trick Cinematography", "Some Oddities of Screen Pictures", "Developing the Negative", and "Completing the Film for the Projector", suggest how wide is the scope of the problems considered.
