Photography magazine.

Can anyone point me in the right direction.
I am looking to get a weekly/monthly photography magazine.
I need something that will help me to obviously take better photos, and learn about lighting and how to set my camera for different conditions etc.
At the moment it's a bit hit and miss.
I would like to learn more.
Any thoughts ?

 

Practical Photography is a very good magazine IMO. With a lot of useful articles every month.

What camera do you have, is it a DSLR, Bridge or point and shoot?

Regards

I have a panasonic FZ8
I don't no what the DSLR and Bridge are. :o

I really am hopeless , I don't understand anything.
It's a wonder I ever get a photo at all.:D

I have read the manual that came with the camera and can't make head nor tail out of most of it. :cnfs:

 

Thank you so much.
You explain it so well.
So I have a Bridge camera.
I am amazed at some of the photos I do take .
I shock myself sometimes.
Really I have no idea.
I just point and shoot, hardly ever change the settings.
When I do I panic and put it back how it was.
Everything is on off or auto.
Or they way it was when I first got the camera.
I'm thinking if I can take nice photos without even trying what would they be like if I understood the camera , photography and what I was doing.
I use the camera on P
With the hand shake on 2 and AF & the macro flower is in the view finder.I no this is for close up.
Then there are a couple of other things on there I'm not sure about.
One is a spot inside 2 brackets in a square and the other is a circle in a circle with 2 arrows each side and AFAREA next to it.
There is also a Square in the bottom left corner diagonal half black half white with a plus sign in the black and minus in the black with + 1/3 next to it.
I'm going to have a good read of the manual again today.
I must get to grips with it.:D
Thanks again.
