British Journal of Photography has a new owner

First-round of investment

With this new operating capital, I hope that the new management team consider writing an application for us Android and Surface users too. We don't all use iPads :-)

Other platforms?

As another non-user of Apple equipment I think it is worth exploring e-book formats that can be read on Kindles and Kindles for PC which are a free download.

iNot iAgain!

iI iDon't iWant iAnother iPad iOr iPhone iApp - some of us have free will instead....

Bye, bye BJP!

For me it has been stimulating and rich decades with BJP, both in print and online. I have happily paid your ridiculous pricing on (continental) newsstands and was rewarded with the best images and the most profound viewpoints in our photographic trade.

Since I have no intention of ever moving into and living inside the tight walls of that lunatic Appsylum, it seems we will soon have to part.
Thus, good bye BJP!
Your once true spirit shall not be forgotten!

Print is alive and well

Fritz, the print magazine is alive and well and will continue to be published as if nothing happened. In fact, thanks to the new company WE created - Apptitude - we'll be able to put more resources into the magazine and its distribution across Europe. So, this is a positive move and something that will only strengthen BJP.

Print long and prosper

Dear Olivier Laurent, thank you for sharing this insight!
I'll pass the good news to friends and colleagues.

The Appropriate Formats

Will we know WANT to buy the printed magazine again?

I have not been able to bring myself to buy a copy since it became a monthly as the design and layout as experienced in ptint is a disaster.
The tightly gummed pages prevent anybody opening the magazine.
We are therefore unable to place it open and flat -as it is designed and laid out onscreen-and enjoy the benefit it's size and print quality puryeys-unless you break the spine and dont care if the pages fall out.

I hope very much that at its printed price it can be arranged that the BJ again becomes openable, try using ancient binding methods folks!!

The smaller weekly supported staples and worked as it was thinner, but the gummed spine paperback style and format makes me want to bin every copy I see because I just dont enjoy reading it or looking at the pictures as it is, and on an iPad the pictures are much too small, and I dont like having to carry the thing around all the time just to read a magazine.

Is there a version for real computers with screens big enough to enjoy images on as you can on the National Gallery site or MOMA?

+1 for non-Apple compatability

Agree with those above noting that many readers are not on Apple machines and await compatibility with Android or better still, the Surface.
