THE NO.1 CANON D-SLR PHOTOGRAPHY MAGAZINE!
D
n
We’re the only magazine in
the newsagent that’s 100%
dedicated to Canon D-SLRs
– making us 100% relevant
to your needs.
n
We’re 100% independent.
We don’t answer to Canon
and don’t rely on them for
advertising – if Canon brings
out a new camera or lens
and it’s rubbish, we’ll say so!
n
We’re all Canon D-SLR
enthusiasts and between
us we’ve got 200 years of
photography experience.
We’re excited about passing
on what we’ve learned – even
from our mistakes!
n
We don’t assume you’re a
millionaire. We focus on the
Canon D-SLRs most people
buy, and feature software
and accessories within the
average person’s budget.
n
Our Video Disc has an
unrivalled collection of D-SLR
technique and Photoshop
videos – which can be viewed
via our digital editions too!
n
We are proud to feature
some of the best writers
and photographers in the
business. Turn to page six
to meet them all now!
epth of field is a photographic effect that can trip some people up
when they’re trying to get creative with their Canon D-SLR. Many
beginners make the mistake of assuming depth of field (DoF) is
just to do with setting the aperture; wide for shallow DoF, narrow for
maximum DoF. However, as we explain in our in-depth Canon
techniques guide this month, it also has a lot to do with your
focusing distance and lens’s focal length. See page 28 for our
easy tips to understanding and controlling DoF.
Also this issue we bring you a free Buyers’ Guide to Canon
EOS D-SLRs designed for enthusiasts. From the 700D, 60D
and 70D, to the trusty 7D and the all-new 7D Mk II, plus the
full-frame 6D – we give you all the expert opinion, and
facts and figures, to help you make an informed purchase
when you next upgrade. See page 55.
This month’s Apprentice (page 8) has a night out in
Manchester learning how to take great cityscape shots
with Canon pro Simon Butterworth. We have more great
D-SLR and Photoshop projects, from capturing autumn
colours to landscapes at twilight, plus the next instalment
of our brilliant Photoshop video tutorials (page 39). We test
a bevy of super-telephoto zooms from Canon, Sigma and
Tamron (page 94), and we also have a free Sharper Shots
mini mag for you – see page 5 for download details.
