1 out of 5 stars Subscribe and you'll be scammed out of money with threats   June 24, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

What a load - my subscription ran out and I get a notice from a collection agency threatening me if I didn't pay them for a subscription I didn't renew. This a month after my previous subscription expired. Werner publishing, also the publishers of Digital Photo Pro, PC photo and numerous other useless golf and video rags, seem to think this is the way to build customers. If you're tired of big companies messing with you, don't bother with this magazine. Even if it was free, it is little more than a glossy shill for the advertisers who pay to advertise.

For a fun game, try and find one negative review of a product from an advertiser that has a full page ad in the same issue. Good luck!



5 out of 5 stars Excellent Magazine for Outdoor Photographers   May 26, 2008
This is an excellent magazine for three reasons: 1)the beauty of the outdoor pictures; 2)the rationale and technique described in achieving the shots; 3)fewer ads cluttering the pages as compared to most Photography magazines. I look forward to each copy.


5 out of 5 stars Favorite Photography Magazine   March 1, 2008
Over the years, I have subscribed to several different magazines relating to photography but Outdoor Photographer is my favorite. If you are interested in nature and wildlife photography, this is the magazine for you. It contains articles written by photographers who list tips and certain techniques. Attractive photos and stories about the photos are included. While there are some advertisements of camera equipment these are far less than in other photography magazines. The subcription price is a real bargain.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely the best photography magazine!   February 26, 2008
I look forward to this magazine coming to my postbox! I read it from cover to cover and have them indexed in my photo library. There is so much great information every month. It is absolutely, to me, the best photo magazine out there! It has everything from technical to artistic!


1 out of 5 stars Do NOT subscribe to this magazine   October 16, 2007
 18 out of 20 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.
