Ive been buying photography magazines for a couple of years and just cant decide which one i like the most! some months one is excellent and full of useful content, the next month it has nothing of interest and so am forced to buy a different one. I find the level of detail in which many go into isnt good enough, some months there are technical articles with tips and tricks, the next they just cover as much content as they can with no real usefulness, A lot of the time i just have a flick through them until something catches my eye.

Just wondered what magazines you find the most useful and if there are any that might be hiding in specialist shops which might be of interest to the landscaper!

Digital Photo mag for me. It always has a few tutorials to follow and is a good read too.

Apart from EPZ of course!

In the final analysis pretty much the same, but I keep buying it as there's more chance of catching an interesting image there that in most of the competition. Specially now that Lenswork has become hard to find locally.

I do like the columns though, Eamon McCabe, Mike Johnson, and the Golden Oldie. Another plus is there are mercifully few kit tests.

Mine are:

Digital Camera - This is my favourite, I like the style of writing and the features mean there's always something of interest
Practical Photography - I buy this as for some reason there's always something that I want to read based on the front cover, but I'm too embarrased stood in Tesco's for 1/2 hour reading it! lol
What Digital Camera - This I get because I subscribed for 12 months, if I hadn't subscribed I wouldn't get it, as I prefer the other two

Amateur Photographer is my favourite. It's more like a weekly newspaper on photography with good news items, reviews & interesting articles profiling well-known & not-so-well-known photographers. The monthlies keep re-hashing technique articles on an annual basis, i.e. 'Using Filters', 'How to take Great Landscapes', 'Night Photography' etc.
