If youre looking for more good female cinematographers, Uta Briesowitz is worth checking out...

Thanks for the heads up!

Also, for directors, I would recommend Mary Harron, Ildiko Enyedi, Claire Denis, and Julie Taymour

Thanks. I've barely thought about directors yet. I'm familiar with all you've mentioned except Enyedi.
