If Lenswork weren't so damned small, I would be interested. I just hate tiny images.

Hurry, Hurry.
For an extra five dollars they will send you a magnifying glass.

Thanks for the heads up John! That's a great price!

I never understood why loyal readers should get the shaft.

I keep on thinking that I should subscribe but the postage to the UK is a killer. $39 extra.

I decided to byte the bullet and, compared to what's available in France, Lenswork is waaaaaayyyy beyond ! Even with the premium, it's still worth the price.

I may have learnt more on what really matters in photography in Lenswork than any other media ( don't flame me, I learnt a lot on APUG and other ways, but the craft is one thing, and the process to really express what I need to express is another. It took me years to discover this, and even though Lenswork has images (pretty darn good, IMO), the best value for me is in the text)

Isn't it wonderful that you are continuing to learn from any source? My wife is a teacher of six year olds and tells me we all learn in different ways. I remind her that many people after a certain age do not learn at all. We meet them daily. I have taken sixteen photography related college courses in my retirement 40-45 years after I graduated from college the first time. I find it exciting.

Have you looked into the extended version on CD. I have not checked Lenswork’s overseas price structure, but I would think that would lighten the postage and give you more of the interviews or what appears partially in text in the magazine.

I'm an IT consultant and also a trainer for software, and I've been amazed how much I can learn on a subject I know by heart (I'm using some soft since 10 years) by complete newbies...

I'm still thinking about it, but find that I spend too much time in front of my PC. I have the CD for the 56 first back issues, and I still have to go through the whole set.

Really? To each his own of course but I'd say it's the mostly finely printed black and white magazine going, certainly at it's price level. Might be worth taking a "closer" look. =) Of course this is coming from a fellow who loves 2 - 1/4 contacts prints.....
