 PCPhoto - great magizine April 23, 2007

I recieved PCPhoto about 6 weeks after ordering. I really liked the price compared to news stand prices I'd been paying. I am a hobby photo user and have had 7 digital cameras. This magizine had many articles and several how to stories in it. I have learned a lot about digital photography from PCPhoto and enjoy the balance of articles and the way they are written. Worth every penny.
Good technical articles and decent reviews April 22, 2007

The reviews presented in PCPhoto tend to just introduce "what's hot" and "what's new" rather than giving the pros and cons of the items. They feel more like advertisements than reviews. On the other hand, the technical articles are much better. They usually provide some insight for the beginner, average, and more professional camera users. Being "PCPhoto" they also range in topics and are not just specifically camera/photo based. I can usually find some good technical pieces in each edition. The magazine has good value at the subscription rate, but not at the cover rate (which is often the case for all magazines).

This magazine is wonderfull. I have seen magazines that you have to search through the ads (which often outnumber the articles) and this is far from that. The articles I have seen are current and deal with issues I as an amature dig pic buff want to know about. I higly reccomend it.

I got a subscription to this magazine as a gift and at first glance, thought it was going to be nothing but lightweight glossy fluff mainly meant to push new products. To be fair, there are plenty of lightweight reviews of new products in each issue, but there are also a surprising number of very useful, practical how-to articles-- mainly geared to novice or intermediate digital photographers (like me!). Yes, I've purchased big thick books on Photoshop before, but somehow, I never gotten to far in actually reading those books (maybe too much info for a hobbiest who doesn't need/won't use 1/2 the features in the product?). I recently switched from using Photoshop to using Photoshop Elements, and this magazine seems to be a nice compliment to that software package. In recent issues, I've learned when and how to effectively use RAW vs JPG, how to take better advantage of graduated ND filters, how to use Levels correctly, etc. The contributing editors are all top-rate as are the photographs and examples. I highly recommend anyone with a new digital SLR and/or new PC image software such as PS Elements, to get this magazine. It's well worth the subscription!
