British Journal of Photography is the world's longest-running photography magazine and has remained at the forefront of the professional photographic market for more than 150 years.

Published monthly, it has a circulation of 7,846 copies (ABC July 2010 - June 2011).  In March 2010, it re-launched with a sleek new look and an injection of new editorial sections, returning to its original monthly roots.

The new design plays to the strengths of print with premium-quality paper and improved reproduction techniques. More prominance is given to photographs as well as in-depth articles, with the focus shifting from news-driven content to the creative impetus of professional photography. 

Each issue features profiles of emerging talent alongside star names, a picture-led Portfolio section, business analysis and detailed technology reviews.
