You Have Got to Have it.

If you are having difficulty understanding shutter speed this is the book for you. As with all of Bryan's books it is easy to read and understand. I would recommend this book for anyone who loves photography it is a great resource.

Easy to understand

For me Understanding Shutter speed made it easy for me to finally get it. I have been using B.Petterson Exposure too and finally got off "Auto". I highly recommend this book...great examples written clearly and understandable.

Enjoyable Writing Style

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.

great!

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

Good, but you might need more camera

This book provides a lot of good ideas for shooting more artistic images. Covering a variety of shutter speeds and settings, it does a good job of inspiring you. It also features photos taken using the settings described in the text.

But here's why I gave it only four stars. It's not the author's fault, but you may need more camera to take advantage of some of the suggestions. I use a Sony H5 which falls in between point-and-shoot and full SLR. Even in full manual mode, I'm unable to adjust the aperture past f8. Consequently, longer shutter speeds result in serious overexposure. Again, not the author's fault, just a point to be aware of.
