Photography Magazine

[ckopoto]

HI,

my husband is an active member of this sight but I think I have disguised myself enough so that he won't know. I was hoping to give him a magazine for a stocking stuffer this year but I am not hip to the world of photo mags. I would appreciate any feedback. I was thinking LFI, B&W or Source. If I remember correctly I think he has a Leica M3

Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome.

Nice idea you have there for your husband. I believe many here will agree that Black and White Photography magazine (the one from England) is a must read :
http://www.thegmcgroup.com/item--Black-and-White-Photography--1003BW.html

That is unless your husband doesn't do black and white at all, but still there are some superb articles about art, gear, famous photographers, etc.

Afraid after being a subscriber to Black & White Photography for a few years I decided to not re-new recently as it's really been dumbing itself down over the last year or so, IMO.

Lenswork is an absolutely gorgeous magazine that any photographer can appreciate.

He might enjoy Lenswork (www.lenswork.com) I do. They are running a holiday special price for subscriptions right now.

Rich I didn't know about BW. I've been reading it for a few months only. Thanks for the plug to Lenswork. I did not know this mag but it sure seems to be very interesting!

I recently found this tiny magazine at my bookstore. I believe it is not very much well known but have a look : http://www.daylightmagazine.org/

the US B&W magazine - while more aimed at photography art collectors, is beautifully printed, with very nice images - so I like that one.

I'm also a fan of Lenswork and PDN (which is more photo industry targeted).

Shannon, if this is you, I'll take a Lenswork Extended and a B&W...and how 'bout a Ricoh GRDII. I don't need any sweaters this year. Thanks! :)

How about Aperture

or American Photography

Hi,

You might take a look at Camera Arts which is a US publication. Between that and the other many good suggestions ( we get the suggested magazines down here) you shoud find something.

Happy Christmas

As everyone's plugged the other ones, I thought I would cover Source.
I assume you are in the Uk, as Source is more well know here, its actually an Irish magazine, and covers very contemporary UK, Irish and European primarily photography with wide ranging accademic articles and reviews - so perhaps not to everyone on this forum's tastes.

Thanks everyone, I think I will subscribe to Lenswork and pick up a copt of Daylight for his stocking as well.


Happy Holidays!
