Summary: good magazine
Comment: I think its a real good magazine, if I compare with Shutterbug

Summary: ... photography is more than naked woman...
Comment: I cancelled my subscription to this magazine 6 months ago with a letter to the editor stating that I loved to see nude woman, but subscribed to learn from the masters about photography. I cannot tell you how disappointed I was when I resubscribed after not taking the magazine for years... it used to be a wonderful magazine chock full of insightful articles, lighting techniques, studio setup diagrams, lots of great stuff... I subscribed to a 2 year deal through an online subscriber and asked them to quit sending it after only 6 months and to keep the money.
Not worth the paper it is printed on- period. Apeture I hear is pretty good, and I also hear Popular Photography has gotten much better and now only 95% about advertising and product reviews and at least 5% helpful tips and tricks...

Summary: BEST PHOTOGRAPHY MAGAZINE OUT THERE!
Comment: American PHOTO has an indepth look at alot of various subjects. There are some photos of real life situations & experiences. The latest issue depicted the Iraq war situation, how some of the soldiers & Iraqi civilians are coping with what's going on around them.
The magazine also has alot more close-up & detailed photo's, so even the amateur photographer can enjoy it. I have been a subscriber to American PHOTO for many years & probably will continue to subscribe for as long as the magazine is in existence, or the rest of my life, whichever comes first. I collect each & every issue.
I love America PHOTO!!!!

Summary: Good creative photography magazine aimed towards glamour
Comment: American Photo is a much better magazine than its sibling Popular Photography, but frankly, that is not saying much. It seems as though its primary market is fashion/glamour photographers since most of its issues are devoted to these aspects of professional photography. There are other magazines which excel at nature photography, so I am not disappointed by its absence here, but not noting more fine art documentary photograhy is a major omission which I hope this magazine does address eventually. There are also excellent photo equipment reviews frequently written by working professionals, as opposed solely to in-house technical equipment overviews. American Photo is without question among the better photo magazines currently available, but unless you are interested mainly in fashion and glamour photography, you might wish to look more closely at Shutterbug or other magazines devote to nature and fine art photography.

Summary: It's all about fashion.
Comment: I really have to wonder why they don't change the name of this magazine to be something about fashion and pop culture photography, because that's really what this is about.
If you LIKE fashion and pop culture photography (or you like pictures of nekkid ladies and are too shy to buy real porn but not shy enough to have to resort to National Geographic), then it's probably a pretty decent magazine, although even then they tend to concentrate pretty heavily on people and not very much on photography issues (technique, gear, or what have you). In a lot of ways you might as well just buy Rolling Stone and look at the pictures, or something.
If you don't much care for fashion photography, buy something else.
