1 out of 5 stars Do NOT subscribe to this magazine   October 16, 2007
 22 out of 25 found this review helpful

I let my original subscription run out without renewing, ignoring their numerous requests to sign up for another year. The publisher, Werner Publishing, sent my account to a collection agency, despite the fact that I had not purchased anything, nor said that I would renew the subscription. They sent me a threatening letter saying they were trying to collect a debt, and that "full payment is expected." When I called the agency, they even had a phone menu option for stating that you never renewed the magazine, showing clearly that this is a well-known, standardized process.

This tactic of harassing people and frightening them into coughing up $14.97 for a magazine renewal is unconscionable. They need to be held accountable for using this scare technique as part of their regular business practice. This publisher also publishes such magazines as PC Photo and Digital Photo Pro. At a minimum, they caused me to waste a fair amount of my time correcting the problem.

It's a shame, too, because the magazine is well-written, has great photography, and decent equipmnent reviews. Some outstanding photographers write here. However, their efforts are ruined by their terrible publisher. Do not support these harassment tactics. For a mere $14.97, they've permanently lost a customer, and I hope others as well.



5 out of 5 stars If you like landscapes....   May 12, 2007
 6 out of 7 found this review helpful

If your thing in photography is outdoors- landscapes, sun sets, dawn, mountains, lakes, wild life, etc., then this is the correct magazine for you. The techncial level is just right for a serious amateur photographer, or even professionals. The articles and the ads are very useful. Price is good; results are excellent.


5 out of 5 stars Required reading where I come from.   April 18, 2007

To me this magazine is one of those things in life we call necessary.
Of course I subcribe!
Of course it arrives... month after month.. and always has since the first issue.
Outdoor photographer publishes the work, advice and exploits of some of the most experienced photographers of our generation.
Not all of the top outdoor photographers author a column but even so you feel the high standards of the magazine reflect those out in the field as well.
To be honest I didn't realize getting this magazine was a choice.
It's just automatic for me!
Good luck!



5 out of 5 stars THE magazine for Outdoor shooting!   April 11, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Outdoor Photographer Magazine is my favorite photo magazine. Period. Excellent images with insightful instruction on both shooting and post processing. Predominently a digital venue it covers the newest post processing softwares and techniques designed to make you a better photographer as well as the newest equipment for the outdoor shooter. I read every issue cover to cover without being burdened by excessive advertising. Last but not least is the great information on when and where to get those images we all desire in our portfolio.


2 out of 5 stars Trite and unimaginative   September 23, 2006

If I see another picture of a blurred waterfall or creek I am going to puke...I have not seen one truly imaginative, artistic image in this magazine. Everything is run of the mill, boring, standard outdoor photography. Lots of sunsets, flower fields. No different angles or perspectives, colors, nothing new. The articles are geared toward inexperienced photographers and really repetitive. I think I clipped one interesting article in a year worth of magazines...
