Because I watched them all back to back. I can definitely notice a distinct difference between the camerawork in FotR and RotK, specifically Frodo and Sam's journey in the first 2/3rds of the film (moreso than the Aragorn/Gondor storyline). Lots more complex camera moves (like the crane shot of them sleeping on the edge of the Endless Stair) and extreme closeups ("share the load....THE LOAD") as opposed to the medium and medium closeups in FotR. Another thing (not really to do with camerawork) that differentiates FotR and RotK is an increase in the amounts of sets and green screen work. Compare Amon Hen (mostly on location) with Pelenor Fields (location, but more location+green screen, specifically after Aragorn arrives). And as we know from logistics, I think roughly 2/3rd of the Hobbit was shot on indoor sets, and you can certainly tell from the footage. And I may roll my eyes and wish for the gritty days of the natural light awesomeness of FotR, I love the more-CGI world of RotK and I actually really like the look of The Hobbit from what we've seen thus far. I do think that it has more in common with the epicness of RotK than the simplicity of FotR in terms of visuals. Either way, I'm excited. I love the cinematography of the trilogy, and it had a huge impact on my photography style, especially when I first started shooting a couple years ago. That's awesome that you do it for a living! Right now I'm a hobbyist who occasionally gets paid ;)

But should "The Hobbit" feel like "The Lord of the Rings"?

Could you expand on what he meant by "shot in the style of"?

God, I hope not. The trailers certainly don't suggest as much.
