The bible for both amateur and professional photo-enthusiasts around the world.

Amateur Photographer is the world’s oldest weekly photographic magazine, established in 1884. It is the respected authority for news and reviews, with detailed tests and investigations on the latest equipment.

The weekly contents include interviews and columns from many of the world’s leading photographers and practical technique to inspire and enthuse the devoted readership, to whom taking photos is far more than just a hobby. Essential reading for those interested in buying photographic equipment or wanting advice about improving their picture taking.

Photos bring history to life like nothing else does. You may recall Andy Saunders’ magnificent restoration of NASA’s photos from the Apollo missions, using modern digital image processing to reveal a clarity not seen before. Well, he’s done it again, with the earlier Mercury and Gemini missions. Much closer to home we visit a fascinating project honouring British mining heritage. We also test Leica’s first M-series camera with an electronic viewfinder; and the newest-generation Nikon 24-70 f/2.8
