I don't do origami much anymore, but I really liked it as a kid. In any case, I think the books are honestly nicer to use. You can look away without having to pause each time to make a fold, and you don't have to wait for the person in the video to finish each step. Just have to get the hang of interpreting the different types of dashed lines and what they mean to do. It does help when the book is well written and includes a small amount of text under each step to help interpret ambiguous instructions though.
Same. Especially the ones that only used drawings – it's the most "readable" way to present the folding. A friend of mine showed me his origami book which used photos and I had serious difficulties figuring it out.
