I received the book from Amazon.com this week and with the uncertain power situation I have had lots of time to look at it today. This book is one of the best organized, informative and good looking reference books on the subject that I own. I know this will be a book that I will refer to many times in the future. I especially like the amount of information regarding QT pro which I have but only used used a few times, I see that it opens all kinds of possible effects in iMovie that I had thought were not possible.
