Amazon owned the classic photography review site DPReview, which was established in 1998, and in March, they decided to shut it down.
It was quite disappointing, but now they have reached a solution where Gear Patrol will take over the site and continue running it. Those who had an account on DPReview have now been given an account on Gear Patrol instead.
The site will continue to operate as it was before, with all editorial coverage and site features remaining the same, and all historical content accessible. That being said, we are excited to begin a new chapter working within and alongside an editorial company like Gear Patrol and expect to continue evolving DPReview based on customer feedback and the rapidly changing state of the publishing industry.
