So I bought one of the Popular Photography magazines (digitally) was I didn't like it at all. The information given seemed WAY too simple (I kept thinking "duh" when reading it) and it explained way too much basic technical detail (shutter speed and aperture for example) instead of the thought process of how shots were taken. I was also lucky enough to have chosen the issue with an article about Ian Plant, who also had an article in Outdoor Photographer. I couldn't believe how different the two articles were, for the reasons stated above.

I'm about half way through Digital Photo Pro, and I'm enjoying it more than I expected. Even though the article about full frame cameras "taking over the world" doesn't apply to me, I found it interesting. Now I'm only wondering if I should go with Digital Photo Pro or Digital Photo. Am I right in assuming that Digital Photo is more aimed towards hobbyists instead of people who have photography as a career?
