New Cameracraft download released

The first digitally published issue of Cameracraft, Vol 10 No 1 May/June 2025, went out to subscribers on May 1st. Our Pocketmags versions went live at the same time. Subscribers paying £15/$20 a year get higher resolution PDFs, which do need a good connection to download from the link we send out as they are 80-100MB in size. They can also be displayed as double page spreads instead of split into pages, when viewing on a large screen. We recommend viewing on a 1080p capable device (1920 pixels wide) but even better on a 4K screen.

These PDFs are good enough to allow ordering of a printed copy from Mixam.co.uk (for UK delivery) or Mixam.com (USA) or the same corporation’s other print on demand services worldwide. The only way to get this quality of PDF is by subscription here.

We are happy now to release the issue for everyone to read on-line here in with low resolution (72dpi) images, no spreads and no download option – but free!

2023 off to a great start!

The world can look very different through the lens… in our January/February 2023 edition, we took a keyphrase ‘Distorted View’ and it runs through the issue in different ways. Michael Colin Campbell remains an early pioneer of digital imaging, with Adobe from the start, after his entry into photography plunged him into the most high-end darkroom work ever with dye transfer printing. William Mortensen proved a fascinating historic photographer to research, with his strangely distorted occult images and nudes hitting the eyes of the photographic world a century ago but still looking contemporary. The third photographer on our cover, Peter Karry, has pursued reflections and altered views in strong colour for many years and won awards for his travel and creative work.

To subscribe on Pocketmags (currently they have a sale on) just go to https://pocketmags.com/f2-cameracraft-magazine

We also have printed copies ready to post – we don’t keep a large stock of back issues so move fast! New subscriptions taken out in January will start with this issue.

Download or read through our July-August edition free

Cameracraft is received exclusively by subscribers and members of The Guild of Photographers. It’s easy to get single copies or subscriptions from this site, and in addition to the printed magazine digital delivery is an eco-friendly low cost alternative which fully supports our unique magazine.

After our subscribers receive their copies whether digital or printed, we wait a couple of weeks before releasing this viewable and downloadable PDF version. It’s a good quality too with the PDF created at Retina screen resolution so you can zoom in or use a large screen. To download and keep you may need to right-click if the PDF opens in a browser window – it’s normal now to have an extension installed which does this. You will however get a better choice of view modes by saving an opening using Adobe Acrobat. Select Two Page view to see the spreads properly, and expand your window to fill your screen. Don’t select ‘Full Screen’ mode as for some reason Adobe make this disable the two-page view!

Your downloaded PDF will include all email and URL links from the text on the pages.
