What our customer's say!

"Like it", This is the third book I'd purchased by the same author (first two were Understanding Exposure and Learning to See Creatively) and it is, no doubt, something I was looking for. Written very light and readable it really matched many things I tried to understand in making good photographs. Just can't wait the last one "Understanding Close-up Photography: Creative Close Encounters with or without a Macro Lens" to be published in '09.

"Another great book", I bought this book to help me practice setting the exposure manually. It has beautiful and inspiring images that help motivate.

"Amazing...", I was originally going to buy "Understanding Exposure", but decided that since I am a photography student and I actually understand exposure that, that might not be the greatest thing to buy. I am super glad I bought this one "Understanding Shutter Speed". I was flipping through the book and what caught my eye was the pictures, and the in depth explanations on how he achieved his results. The book is a fast, easy read and I recommend it for beginners or photography students like me.

"Fantastic Book!!", Not technically brillant at digital photography, I purchased Bryan Pettersons book Understanding Shutter Speed in the hope that it would enlighten somewhat so I could go out and take reasonable photos. I read it and then went and purchased Bryan's other book "Understanding Exposure".

Both these books are absolutely brilliant (unless you are already a pro photograher - and even then, you would probably still learn something). Petterson is an excellent photograher and he has included many of these photos in his book to ilustrate points and compliment the text.
The books are very well presented, are extreamly easy to read and the book is printed on very high quality paper.

If you are dispointed with this book (and also Understanding Exposure - which compliment each other), then you should really take up painting.

Can't recommend highly enough

"You gotta love this approach.", The author is really good at taking one aspect of photography, such as exposure or the use of shutter speeds, and explaining it within the broader context of taking good pictures. If you want to learn how to perfect your use of long exposures, very short exposures, and everything in between, this book will do the job. There is a reason why this author is a mega-best-seller. Buy this book and learn for yourself.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"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.

"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.

"Shutter SpeedsTechnique",
Very good book especially for beginning photographers. The author explains how various shutter speeds can create different effects with each image. The author shows this with numerous photographs throughout the book. Well written and easy to understand for any level of photographer.

"Very informative", Bryan Peterson's books have always been very interesting, and Understanding Shutter Speed definitely is his best book to date. Like his previous books, he writes very clearly and the sample photos are beautiful! I would buy this book again just for the photos. It takes photography to another level by showing the readers how easy it is to be creative using different shutter speeds. If you want to learn to take all those action filled shots that you thought only professionals can do, buy this book and discover that you can do it yourself!

"Muy buen libro de fotografía, buenos tips, buenas ideas", Había comprado el libro anterior del mismo autor, "Entendiendo la exposición" y quedé muy satisfecho con la compra. Ambos libros los recomiendo 100%, yo los compré desde Chile y para mí valieron la pena el envío que es bastante costoso comparado con el valor del libro mismo.
