I think instead of writing separate books the author could have composed the whole series into one book because reading all his books you will often find yourself re-reading information from book to book. However, it is still a good book for people that have little to no experience in taking their camera out of auto mode and getting better exposures.
He's quick to give helpful hints and tips with clear vivid analogies.but don't go and buy the book just yet. .and I mean a lot.
Don't be surprised if at times you find the author almost appear to be bragging about his life and supposed success. Those of you who are professionals or experienced amateurs will find this book lacking in very advanced techniques.
It explains middle range basics (It won't tell you how to turn on the camera) on shutter speed for photography. It's not the best but definitely really good.
Instead of buying this buy his Understanding Exposure and pick this up from the library.
Shutter speed is that little thing that can make or break your photo. I have his first book Understanding Exposure (brilliant book and I recommend it for everyone). Understanding Shutter Speed is my second book that I just purchased and already I am understanding more and more about shutter speed. Whether it is in film or digital the foundation is the same. I know now that I am going to expand further in my photography for both film and digital.
Works from the end of being a coffee table book because of the beautiful photos, and from the end of being a text book, or a manual to take with one if one was not concerned about damaging it. I already have purchased exposure book, and have not had the time to read it yet.
Easy to read. Clear, concise, tremendous photos.
Well now I understand why he is such a highly respected author. Book is organized well.
Photos support his point. His love of the art explodes off of the page.
In fact I still have to go through this book several more time. Tremendous.
This is a great book on understanding shutter speed. I also have his other book on exposure, great ones to add to your collection.
if you love photography and want to expand your variaty in styles, this book gives a lot of ideas
