Couple of posts worth pointing out as immediately useful, I think.
One is a video by Guardian photographer Dan Chung gets a masterclass from Pinny Grylls. It just happens to be slap bang in the middle of an article explaining the different formats you can get on video cameras. Ooooh, that multimedia page loveliness that the web offers.
There is also a nice article on How to shoot for the edit and Beeban Kidron explains how to shoot an interview When talking heads stop making sense
Kevin Anderson takes a good look at mobile phones that will do for video and there is also a nice PDF version of their anatomy of a basic camcorder.
Go on, go video mental. You may as well, nothing to read here now that they have published everything you need to know
