I recently received a copy of this book to review on my blog. This is really a great book that fills a very important need in the church. I am always looking for good resources that help volunteers get up to speed in using tech equipment at church. This is a book that will help beginners and experienced users alike with an overview of equipment and methods. I am already passing it around to our tech volunteers and we will plan on using the book in our training.First, let me give you my background. Although I am a pastor, I am always playing with audio and video equipment. I'm the guy that reads through the entire manual of every single piece of equipment at the church and then plays with it to try it out. As pastor, I want to know how things work and how they function. I'm also the guy at church who helps running wire and installing new equipment. At times, I also train our tech workers and get them up and going as well. I have had experience with designing and installing both audio and video systems, although I've not gotten into the lighting world yet.The book is organized into three main sections: sound, lighting, and video. All of the sections contain diagrams and pictures to help explain the principles and theories. Each section also contains examples of current equipment and how they work. The section on lighting was the most helpful to me since I haven't had the opportunity to really learn about all the different types of lights and connectors. The audio section was good, but it was mostly review for me, although I picked up some great info about EQ that I haven't heard before. The video section had some really good advice on designing and planning video systems in churches and making the switch to wide screen.
