As with all things digital or non digital, even digital photography has a top website. Digital Photography Review (dpreview.com) is the market leader in understanding and producing the needs of digital photographers – from low enders looking for a place to fire their passion to high end photographers in need of the latest cameras and accessories to make each shot their best. Digital Photography Review is the best online review website for everything or anything that relates to digital photography, techniques and methods. There are a wide range of categories to simply click and go to that provide endless amounts of information and detail pertaining to that specific subject (such as macros, portraits, landscapes, etc.)
Since the year 1999, Digital Photography Review has expanded leaps and bounds to become the de facto leader of digital websites. They have a variety of categories that help in speeding up the things the user wishes to know more about. A few sections are:-
- Latest News: With an RSS feed powering it, the latest news section talks about the latest entrants to the digital photography field, new lenses and accessories, company reviews and their hopeful candidates for release and also post production software.
- Camera database: The most up to date camera database in the internet, unless of course the internet itself is counted as a database! It has a listing of the most prolific camera makers with their cameras listed in specific categories such as current models and discontinued models, with their reviews and prices updated every day.
- Challenges: Simple competitions with no prize but all glory hosted by many dpreview members are held here. The best picture is decided by popular voting, and is posted very publicly for the glory of the winning member. These challenges are very popular within the community and have a very simple theme behind each one.
- Buying Guide: This is the most informative section in Digital Photography Review as it provides many articles, reviews and details on which digital camera or lens or shooting aid one must buy for best use. The section has a features search aimed at those specifically wanting certain features on a camera; a side by side section for those unsure about which camera to buy between two or three cameras and a top cameras category that lists the very best camera in the past few months. These include statistical data and previews of what users have been using over the past days.
