The brand-new issue of PhotoPlus: The Canon Magazine is available now (as well as arriving in subscribers' postboxes) and it’s a full-on festive issue.
Christmas has come early! The new January issue 147 of PhotoPlus: The Canon Magazine is on sale now.
Christmas and the holidays offer a wealth of photo ops, from wintry landscapes and wildlife, to fun family portraits and festive food – and in our big Canon techniques guide, we’ll help you take amazing photos of it all.
Perhaps you’ll also be hoping to get (or will be treating yourself to) some new camera kit this Christmas.
We have an 8-page pull-out Christmas Gift Guide packed with fantastic ideas, starting at under £10, and up to over £500.
Plus for UK readers,
we have two great competitions for you to enter this issue: win over £800 of Manfrotto kit in a big bundle giveaway; and win a new full-framer mirrorless Canon EOS R body and adapter, plus a masterclass with Canon pro and PhotoPlus columnist David Noton at Canon UK HQ.
New Canon Skills
In our Canon Skills section there are new photo projects and image-editing tutorials to follow: use UV light for amazing portraits indoors, scan your film to convert old photo into new digital images, and build a budget lightbox.
All photo projects and image-editing tutorials come with free videos to follow along.
In Canon School we have essential new advice on whether you should use manual flash versus E-TTL II flash, plus Canon expert Brian answers more of your technical questions in EOS SOS.
We test Sigma’s new ‘Bigma’ 16-600mm super telephoto zoom lens.
