There are so many magazines out there. Can anyone recommend one that they
think is good? Please tell me why also. BTW, I'm in the US if that
matters. Also, If I use Photoshop should I bother with a magazine about
that too?

Two I really like are "Better Digital Photography" and "Digital
Photographer"(there might be two with that name). One other one which I've
only bought once but seemed decent was "Total Digital Photography".I
subscribe to BDP. They aren't cheap because they are from the UK but should
be available at any Barnes&Noble. They all come with CD's with every issue
with demo photography programs, sample images or cameras they test and
image to pratice photoshop on. I like reading the many photoshop/paint shop
pro tutorials they have in every issue as well. You might be happy with any
of them.

I like "What Digital Camera"--from the UK.

I think most of the better photo mags are all British. Most of our Americans
are lousy.

If I were an idiot like you, I would probably say it's proof that
you hate your country...

Could be a statement of fact. There are alot of non-American products that
are superior to American products such as Cars, Televisions, Cellular
Phone, Electronics, Gadgets, etc.

The fact that you don't accept the possiblity other products around the
world could be than those made in American makes you the ignorant one.

I agree with you, but you don't know zb. He is a right-wing extremist
who doesn't even consider me a US citizen just because I happen
to be born abroad and have a non-Anglo name. I was just teasing him.

Hmmm, I think you are sarcasm-challenged...

Ah... yet another wacko on rec.photo.digital <sigh>.

BTW, I always though right-wingers in the USA are the "ultra-patriots"? Eh,
anyways, this group seems to have too much politics lately.

At times, I think I need subtitles ; )

Depends on what you consider a magazine. I'd nominate
"Photo.net", "DP Review", "Digital Photography For What It's
Worth", "Steve's Digicams", "Luminous Landscape", "Digital
Outback", and some other on-line sources that slip my mind right
now.

Print is great for showing and examining the work of
photographers. There are excellent traditional magazines on
traditional photography. For specifically *digital*
photography, the net is a far more useful medium.

As I've stated before in this forum, the UK-produced magazines have
better production values (i.e. paper stock, layout, photo reproduction)
and content than their US-based counterparts. My current favorites are
Digital Camera and Total Digital Photography, both of which have
accompanying web sites with a considerable amount of archived material
for you to look at. Links to these and most other UK photo magazines
can be found here:
http://www.dont-blink.net/luplinks.htm

Both of the above titles (as well as Digital Photo and, to a lesser
extent, Digital Photographer) have Photoshop tutorials, so if your
primary use of Photoshop is to edit/manipulate photos, I'd say you don't
need a Photoshop *magazine*, but would recommend some books:

Katrin Eismann, Photoshop restoration & retouching

Scott Kelby, The Photoshop book for digital photographers

Martin Evening, Adobe Photoshop for photographers
