A good place to start learning.

The benefits of one versus the others depends on where you are shooting, what the project’s content is, what kind of camera(s) you are shooting on, how the project will be displayed, where the project will be displayed (locally, internationally), what format you are shooting on, what format you will be distributing on, and how your are going to edit it.

Person,

Chaz,
