DPReview has just announced they will be closing DPReview.com.
Something nobody saw coming and certainly sad news for the photography community. Also their youtube channel will shut down.
DPReview, which was founded in 1998 and then purchased by Amazon in 2007 provided photographers with detailed reviews of cameras, lenses, and equipment in blog form and video format via thier YouTube channel.
The website states “The site will be locked, with no further updates made after April 10, 2023. The site will be available in read-only mode for a limited period afterwards,”
A copy of their new release below:
Dear readers,
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview will be closing in the near future. This difficult decision is part of the annual operating plan review that our parent company shared earlier this year.
The site will remain active until April 10, and the editorial team is still working on reviews and looking forward to delivering some of our best-ever content.
Everyone on our staff was a reader and fan of DPReview before working here, and we’re grateful for the communities that formed around the site.
Thank you for your support over the years, and we hope you’ll join us in the coming weeks as we celebrate this journey.
Sincerely,
Scott Everett
General Manager - DPReview.com
