    Genuine question (which i will google as soon as i finish typing) were any of the prequels nominanted for cinematography awards? (i.e. at the Oscars, Globes, baftas etc)

    Edit: I've answered my own question...NO, no nomintations for the 3 for cinematography at any awards I could find, according to IMDB

    Thanks for that! You are right, of course that he gets a huge chunk of the credit. But I wasn't talking JUST about the lighting, exposure etc, though that's a huge part of it. I'm also talking about some of the directorial decisions, like the first glimpses of the AT-AT's through the electro-binoculars, the decision to put Luke and Vader is silhouette in Besbin, our first look at Vader's fleet. Those decisions still thrill me. And yeah, Suschitzky's work is simply stunning. Thanks for bringing him up! He deserves adoration!
