Comments about Focal Press Book: The Grip Book, 4th Edition:
a good book for grips, and people like me who just love all that rigging and mounting equipment. Very indispensable if you actually want to work as a grip. For me though (photographer) I would have preferred more real life examples of how to rig up reflectors, sets, and things I want to do. I realise it wasn't writtten for me though. Especially when I see a LOT of pages of crane diagrams I will never use... good to boggle and drool over though!
