At the end of March 2007, the Keystone photo agency publishes the first issue of Bestpicture magazine. The 84-page magazine, which contains 80 percent of the images, presents the best Keystone images from around the world four times a year.  
The pictures are presented in eight to ten-page sections in the sections Politics, Business, Sport, Culture, Nature, Animals, People and Moments. For Keystone, Bestpicture is the tool par excellence for providing the public with an insight into the unique world of images, as the photo agency writes in a press release.
 
The magazine is aimed at the media, advertising agencies and companies. However, Bestpicture is also aimed at the general public and will therefore be sold at newsstands. The initial print run is 15,000 copies. Bestpicture is published quarterly in the standard 210 x 297 mm format, and at the end of the year in XL format on glossy paper. The maximum of 15 display pages do not interrupt any photo spreads, allowing the photos to have their full impact. The publisher is Rainer Kuppler, editor-in-chief Marc Bodmer. Layout and printing are realized by Tamedia, advertising sales are handled by Blueorange Media.
