Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Get a 1 Year subscription, should be enough Comment: The magazine is targeted to the beginner/prosumer in my opinion. It's good and light reading. Full of ads though. I agree with the other reviewer that it gets repetitive after a while, especially if you photography skills are a big advanced. Customer Rating: Summary: Great photography magazine Comment: I have been reading and using this magazine for about 45 years. Its great and upto speed. Customer Rating: Summary: DO NOT ORDER THROUGH AMAZON Comment: Popular Photography is a great magazine. I've bought issues through my local bookstore for years. Then I saw the great prices offered here through Amazon. Unfortunately, my credit card was charged the price the price shown, but since then I have received several bills for the $6 difference from what was shown and Pop Photos regular price. They are now threatening to send me to collections. Another magazine I ordered was never recieved. Amazon told me to contact the publishers. Pop Photo could care less, they just want their $6 and the second magazine did not have a working number. This was a HORRIBLE situation and I would suggest just getting the card out of the magazine at the store and mailing it in. Customer Rating: Summary: Nikon and Canon Magazine..... Comment: I subscribe to this magazine.....Its good skimming through type of stuff. Everynow and then a helpful article comes along. Mostly, its always about Canon and Nikon, with press releases included for other manufacturers. I just renewed, for the heck of it, but it is just recycled articles from the previous year, i.e. a review of last year's replacement rebel, etc. I liked it better when they had articles like day in the life of a paparazzo, a playboy photographer, NFL photographer, etc. Even the shooter of the year is online. This mag has a shelf life of about 2 more years before its all digital. Shutterbug blows it away. Customer Rating: Summary: Amazon subscriptions -- don't waste your time Comment: I ordered this on 4/9 and waited patiently the 6-10 weeks they say it takes for it to arrive. After the estimated time passed I called the subscription service and I was told they would fix the problem, contact me when they had fixed it and make sure I received a full year of the magazine. The nexy day I had not heard back so I called again and was told that the first person I spoke to entered nothing in the system. The second phone call I made was actually entered in the system and again I was told someone would contact me to verify. No one called me so I called a third time. The third time I call I find out that the magazine is now estimated for delivery in September (5 months after my original order date). Super. So I decide to cancel. Initially they want to "calculate the number of issues" I have received and deduct that from my total - even though the reason I am cancelling is because I have received nothing. Great. Finally they agree to refund my money in full. Here's the best part: since I paid with a gift card, they will mail me a check! That can take 4-6 weeks. So, in short, I have no magazine and no money to show for it. Had I sent in a subscription card directly I would have spent a few dollars more but given that time is money and I have spent a great deal of time dealing with the customer service at Amazon I think I would have broken even. Lesson learned. Never buying magazines from Amazon.
