Issue 69 is now free to read in LO resolution page turn here!

Please subscribe – it’s £15 a year, and you get unrestricted downloadable 300dpi files which can be viewed as spread and which print really well, if you want to keep selected pages or articles that way, using printers like the Epson ET-8550 in our office. It was bought when these were brand new on the market. We have just refilled GY (grey) which is the most used ink. The print count, which includes A3+ colour like the Landor Phototex adhesive fabric decor we tested in September/October 2025, was 141 black and white and 1081 colour. The remaining Black, Photo Black, C, Y and M are all more than 1/3rd full and the maintenance cartridge is less than 1/3rd used.

You get the issue download link sent in an email on or just before the 1st of month (Jan, Mar, May, July, Sept, Nov). In this issue – Tom Hill explains how going back to college changed his photography, David Tymm shows how amazing an iPhone and a big bike can be for an epic US road trip, Nigel Thomas on his favour ends of the day and night, and Colin McPherson catches a Kickstarter tide.

We test the Viltrox E to Z fully coupled adaptor which lets you use all your Sony lenses on a Nikon Z body, puzzle over the good points of the ‘not really hybrid at all’ Yashica FX-D 100, check out the ReflectionFrame which uses e-ink to display a changeable picture for months, reminisce with the Zeiss Werra 3 and Zorki 4 from back in the heyday of Iron Curtain cameras. Gary Friedman continues his exploration of AI enhancement for portraits. And we have our first crossword – one which uses picture clues!

Download the latest Cameracraft FREE

It is now over a month since Cameracraft September/October 2023 went out to printed edition subscribers and was released in the App and Pocketmags, and to our digital-only subscribers who received the link to download in a September 1st email.

With main features previewing the season we are now most definitely in – Autumn or Fall – it’s only fair to let the world see the issue with the informative New England Fall article by Jeff Folger, and the introduction to wonderful Welsh waterfalls at this time of year from Jon Rees. And as usual it’s an edition with plenty to read as well as great photography. Please subscribe to our worldwide digital delivery £15 a year to get future issues on the day they are published, or choose the printed edition sent out by mail at the same time. Just click on the cover for the download link to read this edition free!

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.

Read our September/October issue here now – free

Mailed to our subscribers on September 1st and also published on Pocketmags, it’s now time to let everyone read the current magazine. You’ll notice that it contained a feature about The Photography Show, which reached subscribers over two weeks before the show. It’s not very often that we have articles which are time-sensitive but this is one reason it pays to subscribe and get Cameracraft hot off the press!
