Love the magazine |
|
I just received my first issue of Shutterbug. Despite the many pages of advertising (some of which is actually informative), I find that the magazine is full of helpful tips, supplemented by products that are relevant to the advice. I look forward to the other issues and if the quality of the magazine endures, so will my subscription to it. |

Have not received magazine yet. |

I would love to give a review on this purchase, while I bought this magazine subscription on 7/6/2008 I have not received any magazines yet, therefore I cannot review or rate it. |

It's just ads. |
|
I regret giving this to my boyfriend as a birthday present. They said it might take 12 weeks to get it, but it actually took around 14 weeks, and only after I called and complained repeatedly. I was slightly rebuffed for a while, as apparently, 13 weeks is not too long to wait. The magazine itself is full of ads which might be useful to a professional photographers, but is in no way helpful to an enthusiast. |

Shutterbug magazine |
|
Shutterbug is a great magazine for even the inexperienced photographers. The product reviews are great and the articles don't try to talk over your head. I am very pleased with Shutterbug. |

Decent general photography magazine |
As any magazine that is dependend on advertisements, do not expect too critical articles. Reviews of products usually start with a description that comes straight from the product flyer including all kinds of bold claims. But the reviews themselves seem to be more neutral as compared to some other popular photography magazines.
There are of course many pages of advertisements from the various small and large retailers. Personally I think that is great, as I see it as information (what is on the market, etc). However if you see it as something distracting I'd advise to buy a couple of issues at the supermarket before commiting to a subscription (then again, a year subscription costs about as much as 3 single issues so who cares?)
All in all pleasant reading, not to deep, but I'm always happy when I see the latest issue in my mailbox. |
