Thanks for the reply. I already subscribe to edititalPhoto, and I like the
articles, and usually at least browse the camera reviews.
"I do wonder if I should look into a more pure photography mag., as it's the
photography end that I'm working on! I need printer reviews like a hole in
my head. I have two printers next to me right now."
This is my thought, also. Although, I am having trouble with my camera and
just may have to buy a new one (grin).
I placed a subscription to Outdoor Photography and Popular Photography. As
you said, the prices are minimal.
