Seriously I bought a few issues of Pop Photo then bought an issue of Digital Photo since a family member pointed it out to me at random and I haven't looked back since. So Digital Photo would have to be it.

Currently subscribed to shutterbug, it's okay but I first bought the shutterbug special "expert photo techniques" (which is really good annual publication) the rest have too much gear reports. Probably will not subscribe next year.

I used to subscribe to Digital Photo but it gets very repetitive after about 6-9 months. Also I don't like the tutorials about how to change skies etc - that goes too far in PP for my taste. They seem heavily into "if it aint right in the camera, just fix it in post"

Outdoor Photographer

My current favourite - a good blend of technique, opinion and locations

I've been picking up Digital SLR Photography every month so far and it's not a bad read. It feels a lot less like a catalog then some of the mags I have read.

I haven't gotten to that point yet but that does seem to plague the cheaper mags (news stand price). Pop Photo is too gear heavy for my tastes and Digital Photo is more about technique although I do wish both discussed getting things right in camera instead of pushing Adobe products and Aperture.

I have just subscribed to Pop Photo but I still pick up a copy of Outdoor Photographer occasionally. I have checked out a few others but these 2 are my favorites.

I second that one! Suze Randall is a great photographer. :D

I personally have no subscriptions to any magazines. I prefer to look at stuff online instead. It saves me money and it saves trees.

Admit it Jay, thats how you knew about the naked tribeswomen!:p

Outdoor Photographer

+1 here. It's the kind of shooting I really enjoy, and I am always interested in different aspects of this arena. Having said that, I do pick up many other publications from time to time just to keep up, and to make sure I don't get stove-piped into just one category . . .

[Digital_zen]

I have recently picked up a bunch of my old Outdoor Photographer magazines and have absolutely fallen in love with "Basic Jones" with Dewitt Jones,...great stuff! Not a lot about technique, but some really nice philosophical insight and thought provoking writing!
Also I like JPG Magazine, again not a lot on technique but, at some point you get tired of reading the same articles on hyperfocal distancing and Jpg vs. RAW etc. and the major zines are basically like ads these days.

[birdfromboat]

one more for outdoor photographer, but just for gawking I still pick nat geo. naked tribeswomen aside, they have the most consistantly amazing shots of any of them.

ROFL! :lol: I'm an expert on tribeswomen! ;)

i just subscribed to photography monthly. it's an excellent mag that i tried to catch in the bookstore all the time. recently i found a way to subscribe and have it shipped to the U.S. to me for about $5 an issue so i went ahead and subscribed.

recently i've also seen Popular Photography, the UK version, which also seems to be really good.

i generally like UK mags better than the US ones, which makes me think... does UK have generally more proficient hobby photographers?

I'll second that, if its the same mag i'm thinking of (UK Based)

[yogestee]

You just can't buy photography mags here but there's a great book store but the photography mags on sale are in French..

I duck across into Thailand once a month and they have a great selection but in Thai:confused:

When I fly home I stock up on photography mags,,Australian and British ones.. My wife often wonders why I'm nearly at my check in luggage limit when I fly in really light,, my bag is stocked with photography mags;)

I find it ironic that one doesn't buy photography mags just to look at the pictures! I guess readable text is kind of important! :lol:

It seems Jdizzle only buys Nat Geographic to look at the pictures or so this thread would lead me to believe :p
