Product Description
The first book in the Understanding Photography series, Understanding Exposure, was a runaway best-seller, with more than 250,000 copies sold. Now author Bryan Peterson brings his signature style to another important photography topic: shutter speed. With clear, jargon-free explanations of terms and techniques, plus compelling "before-and-after" photos that pair a mediocre image (created using the wrong shutter speed) with a great image (created using the right shutter speed), this is the definitive practical guide to mastering an often-confusing subject. Topics include freezing and implying motion, panning, zooming, exposure, Bogen Super Clamps, and rendering motion effects with Photoshop, all with helpful guidance for both digital and film formats. Great for beginners and serious amateurs, Understanding Shutter Speed is the definitive handy guide to mastering shutter speed for superb results.

5 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Writing Style   May 15, 2008
Having read "Understanding Exposure" by the same author, I was quick to purchase this book, "Understanding Shutter Speed". I'm not sure exactly how to classify my skills as a photographer, but I'm not a beginner and I'm not a pro, but I truly enjoyed reading this book. It was informative, entertaining, and the illustrations were excellent. I have already experimented with some of the items he discussed like long exposures and sparklers! I would recommend this book, and others, by Bryan Peterson.


5 out of 5 stars great!   May 8, 2008
I followed the author's photography course on line and have several of his books. His books are fun and easy to read. Can recommend this to anyone who is interested in photography


5 out of 5 stars Understanding Shutter Speed, Bryan Peterson   May 3, 2008
I have found Bryan Peterson's previous books, Understanding Exposure and Learning to See Creatively, extremely helpful as I was developing my skills in photography.

The title of the current book did not entice me that much. However, once I read it, I found it extremely helpful from a creative point of view.

The author continues his easy to ubderstand style of writing and the excellent images to illustrate his points. This will help you to improve your creativity significantly.

I recommned it highly.



5 out of 5 stars Just Great!   May 2, 2008
This is another great book by Brian Peterson, the quality of the book, the amazing sample pictures and the well explain of them it worth every cent. But that's the great I consider this book a bargain when you consider all the good things that contains. It is a must have.


5 out of 5 stars Bryan Peterson does it again !   May 1, 2008
I have read all of Bryan Peterson's informative books on the technical aspects of photography - they are incredible! His method is simple, detailed and beautifully illustrated. A must read for all who want to learn the technical aspects of digital and film photography.
