Hi all,

I'm one who loves receiving a good magazine in the mail every month or two, and I'm interested in subscribing to one that fits my needs for learning more about intermediate and advanced photographic techniques, plus product reviews, tutorials, etc. I know there are a number of British mags available, some specific to Canon cameras, but I'm wondering what the consensus pick is, if there is one, for all of you?

ps: I'm in Canada, so whether it's British or American, I'm not concerned...

Thanks in advance.

    You know, I think their is no consensus on which mag is best or fits your needs.

    My personal view is that UK mags are of higher quality in terms of the paper quality, images on the mag, and the article than the US ones.

    If you already have a mag that you find useful, I'd stick with that one. Often Borders have a handful of photo mags, if you haven't checked them out already, may be perusing the mag isles may help give you a sense of which mags fits your needs best.

    yeah, sigh, I guess a try'em til you find one you like scenario is probably best... The thing is they're all so similar. With, say, car mags or wine mags there's stuff in each that are very different, that people gravitate to. I guess the same can't be said for photography mags.

    Thanks for your help and I agree with the statement that UK tend to have better overall products.
