What are your favorite and most useful photography magazines and why?

I have recently discovered AC (After Capture) which deals more with post production, but I am interested in finding other good ones.

Actually Ace, I'm not a guy and I haven't had my own darkroom in 24 years. I AM a computer nerd though.

I forgot how much I learned from ShutterBug, but there were a few other really good suggestions, so I'll put it to the vote!

Yes I do. Here in the Philippines, I get to read magazines like Digital Photographer Philippines and I-Mag Photography. There are a lot of pretty good shooters everywhere and it's always great to learn from them through these magazines.

I'm new to it, but I'm enjoying "Aperture." It's more about the image and the thought behind it than the technique in making it. It kind of assumes that you are either "at a certain level" or "beyond all that" and want to know more about the creative process. At least that's my take after two issues. It's not chock full of ads for mail order businesses, either.

I just started back on American Photo, too. This is sort of the creative arm of PopPhoto and I think it's abouthalf-way between PopPhoto and Aperture. Closer to PopPhoto, maybe...

Aperture is expensive at $40 for six issues (with occasional discounts, so check on-line) and Am. Photo is pretty cheap as these things go. For two cover prices, you can get a year, so check it out that way. You might find Aperture in a library if you don;t want to commit or maybe buy a single copy in Barnes & Noble.

I read Adobe's Photoshop magazine--sold at Barnes & Noble, it offers plenty of tips for photography and mainly Photoshop tutorials and advice.

JPG magazine (jpgmag.com) is created by an online community of photographers who submit their work. Then, it's reviewed and finally published in the bimonthly magazine, complete with interviews, how-to articles, photo essays, and more.

Popular Photography has tips for photographers, and also a 'catalog' of equipment such as camera, lighting, and accessories in the back for comparing.

After Capture's sister publication, Rangefinder, is one of the better ones:

And Photo District News is hard to beat:

As far as photojournalism goes, News Photographer is tops:
