It seems there's a plethora of photography magazines out there with more and more focusing on digital. What's everyone's opinion on which are the best?

It would be nice if some of them focused on Canon.

Links are always nice too...

A british magazine "Digital Photo". Monthly with a CD. Full of projects and tutorials (1Hr or more video tutorials on the CD)

(Well, this is a digital forum...)


I also like Digital Photo Pro, though it has some MF & LF and only comes out every 2 months.

Popular Photography is OK. Good for news and reviews and stuff. Not great for the advanced user. And I can't stand that the last 1/3 of the mag is ads.

Outdoor Photographer is also OK if you're into that kind of stuff.


Is any Photo Mag really great? I haven't found one yet, but I'd like to.

Shutterbug magazine does a nice job keeping me up on trends in photography with an emphasis on digital.

The two I read and really like are

Practical photography (british)
Chasseur d'images (french)

Both are a lot about photography, every month a different subject, not much about digital, except from this forum, that's where I learn most...

As for purely digital magazines, I sometimes buy 'DigitalCameraMagazin' (german) but ...

Another mag I rather often buy is DocMa (german), a magazine about digital imagery

I think Digital Photo Pro is one of the best new magazines I've seen in a long time. Shutterbug has a sister mag called EDigitalPhoto.com that is very good. There is another one that is called DigitalCapture that has some very good info as well.

PEI is very good. I had a years subscription and am thinking of subscribing again. It seems they had a lot less ads and more tutorials.

Just go down to Borders and look through the magazine section.

Except that Borders is the Walmart of the book world and they work very hard at putting the Mom & Pop stores out of business.
