You wouldn't know it buy the cover, but this looks to be a very promising magazine for those of us who've bought the HD Snake Oil that David Leeson is selling.

My apologies to the women in the crowd to for this magazines' blatant pandering to the male, electronic geek, Battlestar Galactica watching, only pick up a magazine with a sexy woman on the cover, side of us. And yes I am all of those things, but the premier issue, on newsstands now is worth picking up, it's got a great article about HD photojournalism with some full page HD frame grabs, nice.
