      Also the author of the excellent DV Rebel’s Guide book which was an indie film makers bible for a long time. Obviously the title gives away its age though.

      Stu Maschwitz is a legend, I have an old copy of his book "The DV Rebel's Guide: An all-digital approach to making killer action movies on the cheap". A little dated now, but it's a great read and a lot of the information and techniques in there still holds up today.

      Doesn't look like he's talking about it at the moment, but Stu over at ProLost (author of the great indie film manual "The DV Rebel's Guide") covers the DSLR-for-filmmaking subject a lot and has lots of good technical (and technique) info if you're into that sort of thing:
