I have been a subscriber for probably 20 years.  I have finally had enough.
I would not renew my subscription this year.  The magazine has been just
plain too marketing oiriented rather than photography and especially
portfolio oriented.

Yes, I liked the older format whereby there were 90% portfolios, and an
occasional article on some aspect of a new camera/lens gadget or thing I
could buy.  The new format is plain advertising with a cursory portfolio
added.  Too much advertising.  And too expensive for what I get out of the
portfolios.

There is a lot of nerve in SELLING me advertising.  This time I speak with
my wallet.
