“He was the best cameraman of his era. He has the great ability to capture what has happened in one take. A take that held longer and told you more. He was a strange combination of artist and action man” – Mike Willesee
“No Australian has covered more great events of the past half-century, including wars, than David Brill. He is without parallel.” – John Tulloh, Former ABC Head of International Operations, News and Current Affairs
