I am sure most people know about this website, you type camera reviews and it is at the top of the First Google Page. No, wonder it's review helped me decide my first DSLR Canon 350d. Good job, keep it up...
I wouldn't buy a camera without looking at this site first. I've purchased 3 or 4 after reviewing the information they provide. My favorite feature is the set of photos they take for each camera, makes it so easy to compare when you're looking for specifics, e.g. macro.
Equipment reviews are the best and most comprehensive available.
The user interface (especially the forums) is not the greatest but is tolerable once you get used to it.
The forums are full of rabid fanboys, brand slaves and assorted nut-jobs so beware.
There is the occasional nugget of valuable experience on the forums from some of the experienced and knowledgable photographers who have managed to survive the flames and trolling.
A few years ago, I bought a Panasonic FZ30. I had spent HOURS at dpreview researching what was available. The charts, pictures, specs and feedback from for other users helped me to make an informed decision.
As the review stated, this camera took excellent daylight photo's but was not so good in dim settings. The review and what i experienced were exactly the same.
Next time I consider a new camera, I will always consult this great site!

Incredible resource to fine the perfect camera for you. The buying guide where you can select the features you want is fantastic, I wish there was one like that for autos and appliances.
Cool photography resource site - camera and lens tests and a very helpful forum section
I enjoy their camera comparison charts and detailed descriptions of new cameras. Also have good pictures of each camera.
Always come on this site when looking for a new camera to purchase or see one in a store i wish to get information on. Very thorough reviews, detailed pictures and informative comparison charts. Appreciate the volume of cameras reviewed.
Probably the best place you can go on the internet when you want to buy a digital camera. The reviews and the tests are excellent. So far I bought 3 digital cameras and I made my selection every time based on the information on this site.
If you have a question, you can ask in their forums, you'll get a quick and accurate answer from the community. Overall a very useful site, I'll use it again before my next camera purchase.
Great hangout place for photographers and amateur photographers. We mostly talk about equipment on this site and there is not much actual discussion of photography or techniques. I usually go here before I buy a new lens or camera to hear what other photographers think of the equipment before I spend my money.
Found out lots of useful information on how to select the perfect camera. I think this is a great site for people who do photography as a hobby but if you are just looking for a cool point and shoot camera then this site is a little bit overwhelming
An outstanding website - It dosn't matter what skill level you are Digital Photography Review is an awsome site for information and networking If you are going to buy a camera then you better check this site out first
The need to know before you buy - The site is OK alot of ads throughout which I didn't realize they were just ads til I clicked them. Ofcourse they will have the best reviews, but going to the ads connected me to the info I wanted.
Great site to find the perfect camera - This is a great site to interact with other people and find the best cameras on the market. Phil Askey the site owner does a good job keeping everything up to date.
Best place to find a new camera - This is probably the best place on the web where you can discuss the latest cameras. It doesn't have much about technique or style, but you can discuss the gear. It is also a great place to find out about the latest and greatest equipment.
