Reflections:On Cinematography is the book you’ve been asking for. Roger shares his journey from English country boy to the very different world of Hollywood and speaks in depth on the lighting of his many films. The book releases on November 11th.
To get a signed copy that will be shipped anywhere, order from the ASC bookstore.

If you order REFLECTIONS on the ASC website, they will ship anywhere.

Would be really happy to buy this book, but unfortunately physical one only sells in the USA. Quite sad.. I hope It will be possible in the future! There are a lot of people around the world who are interested in Rogers work.
Do you mean the signed copies or the “regular” ones? The signed ones can be ordered from ASC site and they ship worldwide (i think), regular ones should be available in many other countries. Did you check on your country Amazon for example?
The ASC is not charging more for the signed copies.
They are not and it’s a very nice thing. Only problem could be, for many readers, that since they must be shipped from US the shipping cost is quite high (to Italy it equals the cost of the book). So for many people it could be an alternative to order a regular (not signed) book directly available in their countries. And maybe wait for a local signing event! 😉 Also considering that the ASC, from what i understand, has a limited stock of signed books, which is perfectly normal.
As for me i asked the signed one to my wife as Christmas present, ah ah!
The book will be released in the UK on February 12th. So that will mean they are shipping from that side of the world from that date on. I have asked them for a pre-order link but not received it yet.
The supply of signed books for the ASC is NOT limited. We are visiting there often to sign yet more books.
We hope that some signing events are organized locally since we do enjoy meeting the people. But I haven’t been contacted by anyone who wants to organize that.

I apologize, it seems i misunderstood what they wrote on the ASC page dedicated to the book, but anyway i meant that usually the signed copies of a book are, for practical reason, in a smaller number than the ones printed and sold around the world.

I think that the more the book will get popular (and from what i’ve been seeing around the web, people are looking forward for it everywhere) the more you’ll be asked for that! If there will be one within reach i’ll pack the family in the car and i’ll be there for sure, ah ah!
You can also pre order the book on Amazon Italy and on Amazon in the UK.
Hi! I live in Spain and I would love to purchase a signed copy. Buying it from the ASC store is an option, but the shipping is prohibitive…
Is there a possibility to get a signed copy but shipped from the UK instead?
It would mean a world to me.
Thanks!
Right now, we are not in the UK and I’m not sure when we’ll be back. So the only signed copies are in the States at the moment. I’m meeting with the English publisher next week and I should know more after that meeting.
Hey James,
Really hoping to grab a signed copy here in the UK – any chance Roger might pop by the BSC Expo? That would be amazing!
Also, gutted to report that my Amazon pre-order (placed ~6 months ago) just got cancelled out of the blue. Got an email saying earliest delivery is now Feb 2026, even though it was meant to ship today (Nov). Already spoken to Amazon support but they seem clueless.
Any chance you/your team could nudge Amazon about what’s going on? Would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks so much and congrats on the book!Hey James, Really hoping to grab a signed copy here in the UK – any chance Roger might pop by the BSC Expo? That would be amazing!

As i suspected i think that on Amazon they confused publishing date in US and Europe and they didn’t consider ghe shipping cost from US to Europe, so now they are noticing the problem.
Since James mentioned the possibility (if i understood correctly) of an european signed edition we (in Europe) can either order directly from US or wait next year for that edition.
Any other suggestion? 🙂
We were planning to be at the BSC Expo but it doesn’t look like it will happen. But the books will be at the BSC booth and there will be some sort of special addition to the book. They are working on that now.
You can also buy a signed book from the ASC and they will ship it anywhere.

Mine too. Amazon Germany.
Ordered April, yesterday it said it would arrive today, today it suddenly says ‘order canceled’.
Oh no. Sounds like Amazon hadn’t thought this through.
You can order a signed copy through the ASC and they will ship to Germany.
