highly recommended

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.

Great book

I got this book and Understanding exposure by Bryan Peterson. I have read both and I now have a handle on shutter speed and exposure. I also have a few more ideas on things to do with this knowledge. I highly recommend both books.

Excellent reading!

Anything by Bryan Peterson is worth reading. I reference him to my students in my photography class.

Excellent book!

For an newbie like, categorization of the shutter speed range (like he did in his other book, Understanding Exposure, with f values) is very helpful.

Love this book

Beyond beginner

I bought both 'Understanding Exposure' and this book by Bryan Petersen, and have found both to be extremely helpful. 'Understanding Shutter Speed' is more advanced, and gives tips for more creative photographic effects. It is written concisely, and he provides examples of creative photography and tells us in simple terms how to achieve these effects. The only things that bugged me about this book were his constant references to his beautiful wife, and I didn't think that some of his photographic examples were creatively brilliant. However, the examples clearly showed the effect he was trying to achieve, and may have been exaggerated to do exactly that.
