In fact, Pop Photo has two different cover designs, one for subscription and one for the shelf. The one displayed in the stores always has pictures of equipment on the cover, the other one has photos on it. Says something about how to sell magazines to the general public!<br />Gary EickmeierAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913915168052873347.post-2845894785522394482012-08-31T10:10:18.123-07:002012-08-31T10:10:18.123-07:00Hi, Hartono.

Then I discovered COLOR magazine, no tech talk just pictures and interesting articles. Unfortunately the publishers found that they could not get enough advertising to keep it going and merged COLOR with their other mag, Black and White. I will certainly be looking at Cameracraft.ericinozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14354781470935035317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913915168052873347.post-43278782741552554642012-08-29T18:23:06.093-07:002012-08-29T18:23:06.093-07:00Gary -- as a novice I've been disappointed in ...Gary -- as a novice I've been disappointed in the majority of photo magazines for the very same reasons you mentioned. But I came across a British mag called Practical Photography in a cigar/magazine store. I would buy a copy periodically for $10 a pop (ouch!) I've enjoyed a subscription since Christmas as a present from my daughter. I'm sure it was really expensive. It's a really good, encouraging, inspiring, and informative magazine. They give great projects and tutorials for regular folks that have kept me motivated to shoot whenever I can. Too bad we don't have such mags in the states. But I suspect that will change with Cameracraft. Thanks!Michael Munknoreply@blogger.com
