I have had my 100B since August last year, and used for one wedding. I have been asked to do another one in November, and I want to know more about setting and operation. Anyone can run it in auto mode, I want to be able to do it all. Does anyone know where I can get a video on the operation and settings of this camera? I have Barry Green’s DVD & book. DVD doesn’t really show you anything, other than what the camera can do, but you have to know how to do it. The book explains the camera & settings, but I am one of those people that hates to read, and don’t get anything out of what I read. I have to have visual explanations, and hands on to get anything learned. Also, does anyone know of where you might be able to take a course on Wedding Videography without paying an arm and a leg? I talked to someone in Oklahoma I believe, (Trisha & husband), and they wanted something like $1200. for a 2 day class.

This is a striking admission.
Barry’s books/DVD provide an excellent foundation for understanding your camera. Unfortunately, the onus is on the user to understand what the client wants, then how to execture that. My recommendation would be to take Barry’s book/DVD and try to replicate some of the
techniques he demonstrates. The only way you can explore what that camera is capable of is to physically start manipulating the controls.Having said that, you REALLY need to know how to first restore the camera to the factory defaults to insure you can use the camera again on a shoot.
Unfortunately in your circumstance, the manual is your roadmap to understanding what your camera can do.
Good Luck,

I think Barry’s book and DVD rock. You do need to spend the time to read through. I offer a disc that’s a good companion piece- with animation and examples. It’s also focused on post-production with the DVX which can be challenge.
