Not just for photographers March 14, 2002

Outdoor Photography is one of the best sources that I know of for illustrators and other artists who don't have the time or the means to travel to different environments. Sometimes you just can't find a descent 'snowscape' in the middle of July.

Actually helpful, even for the beginner December 30, 2001

I recently began a subscription to this magazine after realizing it would be cheaper than continuing to purchase it at the newsstand. The thing that really sets it apart from several other photography magazines is that there is actually decent, usable advice in this publication. Other magazines, in my mind, usually have special features that showcase the top-of-the-line equipment, items that are unrealistic to the average reader. I really don't need to know the to fully utilize the newest [amt]camera body since I'll likely never reach the level where I can justify the purchase. Sure, to the 5% of readers who may own the product, it is helpful, but to the average photo buff, looking for solid advice, these articles are merely space fillers. While this magazine does have the occasional high-end equipment review, it is also loaded with columns about techniques and other intricacies that do not take long to learn or apply. The writing is in a logical format and easy to read. It is not too technical and often takes the "just the basics" approach. As with all other photo magazines the back half is dedicated to ads, most of which are misleading and the new reader should be weary. There are only a select few mail order photography companies that are reputable. See photo.net's neighbor to neighbor section for more details.

I suggest you pick up a copy of this magazine to try if you are at al into photography. The name can be a little misleading as there are often topics covered that pertain to other realms of photography separate, but related to the outdoors. I just received my latest copy today in fact and am anxious to crack it open.

Thanks for your time...

Uncritical and technically shallow product reviews. Cliched writing that regularly recycles content, adjusted to whatever the latest widgets their advertisers are trying to sell. Images varying from impressive to contributors rejects. Unadventurous stock photography bias. Open over a trash can to catch the dozens of advertising reply cards that will cascade from its pages.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent for learning tricks and tips   October 29, 2001
I have been a long-time reader of Outdoor Photographer. The magazine provides excellent tips and tricks that I can easily apply to my own outdoor photographic excursions. The articles cover a wide range of topics; everything from the type of filters to use to the pros and cons of going digital to equipment reviews. I especially enjoy the articles and photography by Art Wolfe, Frans Lanting, Galen Rowell, Thomas D. Mangelsen, John Shaw and Kennan and Karen Ward.
