@@janeholst6992 The site and all data will be lost except for the few data hoarders who might try and salvage it. It is a pretty big loss for the community...
You guys should be proud of what you’ve accomplished. I’ve watched your content for years and it’s always a joy. It’s sad to see the project come to an end, but we’re all looking forward to what you do next!
I published another video on the same topic... Very hard to believe indeed. I hope videos such as mine and this one will circulate and create some noise to Amazon's ears... Who knows if they might consider a less radical approach and share the content in the public domain?
I'm sorry to hear this, guys. You have great chemistry and DPReview has long been a great photography resource and have been kind enough to share a lot of my content over the years. I wish you the best for the future!

@@FabulousPepper Apparently...and this is great news..Chris & Jordan will continue their much-loved format under the PetaPixel umbrella. Great news and a brilliant decision by @petapixel - we should all support them by giving them a sub!
It feels personal. The news is shattering. Can't believe that a community so solid could be eroded in one go. My heartfelt thanks to all the members of the team at DPReview. You all understood the science, the art and the emotions behind the craft of visuals. Thanks for being like home to us artists for ages. Still wishing that in some way things change and the site continues to stay afloat!
It's an act of global vandalism. They are actively destroying a community of thousands that could have provided guidance and help to countless present and future photographers. What they do here now will resonate for many years to come and may in fact be partly responsible for the collapse (or acceleration of the collapse) of standalone cameras as a market.
The weirdest and most cruel decision made by Amazon, the parent company of DPreview, ever. I hope that Chris and Jordan will create a new channel, which will be at least as successful as DPReview has been all the time - and the new owner will certainly appreciate it accordingly. All the best Chris and Jordan!
Very sad - but as long as you two continue doing videos together as you were before with The Camera Store TV, we will be set. I will miss the forums and the testing shots, though.
yeah, i really really hope someone archives some of the information on that site. it's, by FAR, the most useful and info rich photography resource on the internet.

This is heartbreaking. The photography community will suffer a massive vacuum without DPReview. I will support whatever you venture into next, love you guys!

Agreed. And it seems that there's no much competition already with manufacturers probably running borderline with making these things. Important for them to get their information out there against the Apple and Google megaliths.
Every camera or lens I've purchased has been because of DP Review - it has been the BEST resource for making great decisions. So sad to hear that DPReview is going away. Looking forward to what you two have coming up!
Maybe that's the reason Amazon is shutting it down. They didn't sell enough crap cheap lenses with big margins because of it and they think wiping it off the earth will bring them more profits because of uninformed buyers who will buy more crap ...
I just want someone to download their whole review database, with all the test images and review articles. That must have taken so much effort to make, now it's all going away.
Very sorry to hear about DPReview ending! I’ve just gotten back into photography, and DPReviews has been so helpful. Chris and Jordan - your reviews have been instrumental in helping me find the camera that is right for me. I will be following your new channel. Big thank you to all the staff at DPReview, and I will be watching all your new videos now through April.

I have been a mostly silent follower of you guys since the camera store videos first started, and a reader of DPReview since 2000. This is a very sad day. I wanted to take a minute to say thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. I hope to see you all pop up somewhere new on the internet in short order. I think you guys need a drinking game send off video - like your year end videos, but a retro of your time at DPReview.
😢 Sad to see this... You guys have always been so great at making sure everything in the Camera industry is documented. Without channels or content sites like yours, a lot of this information would be lost. Appreciate all you did!
Really hope most of the site gets archived. I love older cameras and cameras in general, and you guys have been huge resource for me over the years. Thank you for all that regardless!
Your contribution to this platform is immeasurable and is not taken for granted. The energy you guys deliver is a perfect mix of relevant info and humor, something we don't have enough of in the photo and video community. Can't wait to see where you guys pop up next, will be sure to support~!

Reminds me of the end of DigitalRev. But just like Kai and Lok, I expect y'all will continue on and be successful. Definitely looking forward to watching what y'all do next.
I have been relying on DPReview for all about camera since long time ago. Thank you for all your efforts Chris, Jordan, DPReview team. I know this will be a loss for me, but I hope to see you again somewhere online in the near future.
As someone that's been turning to DPReview for the past 20 years for reviews and technical information, this is a devastating announcement. I can't imagine a world without the content DPReview provided and it's especially hard seeing this channel coming to an end since Chris and Jordan have been arguably the best camera and lens reviewers on the platform. Please keep doing what you guys have done!
What really irritates me is that the archive of equipment reviews going back so long on the website is more valuable than any beancounter would understand. That and the interaction between camera users to pose and answer questions is a hard thing to lose.
This is so sad. Discovered dpreview over 20yrs ago when my interest in photography budded and relied on since my first camera purchase. Thank you for all these years. I’m glad to be able to say goodbye.
Damn. DP Review was the best, most accurate, and most reliable source for objective reviews on camera equipment. Such a huge loss, but thank you for all that you guys have done for the photography community at large. I have learned much from DP review.
I'm just gutted. You guys and the rest of DPReview have been such a rock in the community. I have to believe there's something amazing around the corner for the two of you!
I published another video on the same topic... Very hard to believe indeed. I hope videos such as mine and this one will circulate and create some noise to Amazon's ears... Who knows if they might consider a less radical approach and share the content in the public domain?
The studio comparison tool alone is such an invaluable resource. What a major loss this is. Still I appreciate the great work y'all've put in and wish you both the best in your future endeavors❤
Honestly, this tool is the only thing I ever used on the site. But it is invaluable! With three weeks to go somebody is certainly going to pull the data, but I fear we won’t see new cameras in there now.
The loss of the website and community is an absolute tragedy and hopefully someone is able to pick it up before amazon shuts it down completely. The only bright side is that I know you guys are talented and loved enough to continue with something else and i hope to be able to join your new channel as it goes live!
I bought my mirrorless cameras based on dpreview. Huge thanks for the great work reviewing cameras for the past decades and looking forward to your new site/channel.
What sad news. The loss of DPReview leaves a big chasm in the global photo community. Thank you Chris and Jordan for all your creativity and thoughtfulness. I look forward to the final batch of videos from DPReview - and to seeing what you both do next. Cheers and best wishes!

This feels like a huge loss to me. I had to go out for a run this afternoon to try to get out of the depressed mood I was in after getting the e-mail from DPReview about the end. I'm really glad to hear that you two plan on continuing on. You are really talented and it's always been a joy to watch your videos. Take care guys.

First camera professional website when I surfed the Internet in 2000's. 😊Never forget that in my life.Thank you Dpreview❤. 😢Happy shooting photos everyone!🎉
Why do I sense that you both seem almost jovial about getting out of the contract and going independent. . . Either way, I’m looking forward to jumping ship with you both once more
I agree, their joy and giddiness is really quite inappropriate. Especially since this video doesn’t even address the real tragedies of every other (non-famous) DPR employee losing their job, and the forum being wiped from existence.
It is hard to believe. The site and content made by your team has always seemed to be something fundamental, forever, as unchanged as a morning cup of coffee. This was unexpected. Chris, Jordan, thank you for your work, it means a lot to all of us! I really hope that you will continue to delight us with your reviews and opinions.
Huge loss to the photographic community. Your channel is the only channel I have watch since I renewed my interest in photography years ago, Thanks and best wishes to the two of you and of course to all of the wonderful folks who have done such a great job of providing us with the technical facts as well as the subjective feedback re videography and photography. You will all be missed.

You are my absolute favorite camera guys/peepz/folks/etc. of all time, that's all. I had so many chuckles watching your videos and that means the world to me.
End of an era. I got into photography watching your videos, picking out my gear, taking notes from what you guys did and how you explained things. Thanks for always keeping it light and doing funny intros, letting us into your lives, and just being normal. I'm sure there's a lot viewers don't see behind the scenes but you should be proud of what you presented on this RU-vid channel. Thank you.
So sad to loose such an informative channel for profit! Glad to see you have been picked up but you guys have meant so much to so many people. Too many companies believe give back is important and then forget what that actually means. Respect for team work and knowledge doesn't always have to boring. You guys are so fun and have made such a change to the industry.
This is a sad time for me. I’ve always enjoyed your show and it’s videos. You’ve always been insightful and thought provoking in your videos. I will miss you guys sincerely, good luck in your future endeavors snd projects.
You two got me back into my creative passion after losing all my gear to a house fire as a teen. It was a big obstacle to overcome, but I did it, and felt empowered by your content and spirit. Thanks, everyone! This channel means a lot to me
Checked the calendar about 4 times hoping it was an April Fools' Prank. Really hope you guys have some new project on the way. In the meantime, thank you for all the information you provided to the photographic community, always with a smile. Regards from Italy and hope to read/see you soon! 🙂📷
Only a few months ago I told my wife that one of my favourite things about Christmas is watching your end of year gear reviews. It’s become a tradition in our household. Thank you for the years of amazing content. I know your next venture will be just as successful. Sad day 😢
This breaks my heart and I see it in your eyes too. I remember reading your articles and gear reviews till late nights when I first bought my Coolpix camera in 2008-09. I still do till this day and watched all your videos as well. In fact, 90% of my photography interests, photography concepts and gear knowledge came from you guys. This is something I will never forget and something I will always be grateful for. You guys rock and will always continue to do so. Gush, I wish I was a billionaire....May God bless you all.
A very sad thing to hear. Chris and Jordan have been my favourite camera broadcasters for since way back in the Camera store days and you continue to create great content to this day. I look forward to seeing what you guys will be doing in the future and wish you both all the best.
I'm devastated. I love this channel. I've been watching you guys since the camera store days. I can't believe it's been 5 years. WOW I really hope that you guys stay together, and create you own independent camera and lens review channel. Kai W done it after leaving digirev and he's killing it.
DPreview was where I did my first camera research about 20 years ago and helped my buy my many SLRs along the way to becoming a full time professional photographer!😢 From Canon Rebel Xt till Sony A7iii! What a great expansive source of camera knowledge!
I'm really going to miss these videos. You two made some engaging, well-shot, well-edited content that was fun to watch even when I wasn't in the market for a new camera. Thank you for all the hard work you two and everyone at DPReview put in!
DPR has been my go to source of photography information for 20 years. This will be missed terribly by all keen photographers. Thank you for all the work you have done.
DP Review is my source of camera review back when I started learning photography in 2009. I also watched regularly when you were with Camera Store TV. Circumstance change and I'm not into that photography anymore. Although I still read a few photography magazines regularly. Despite subscribing to this channel immediately after knowing both of you jumped ship, I watched very few of your videos. You, guys, still as awesome as the day I found your channel. I haven't taken any photograph for several years, but the news about DP Review closing down hits me quite hard. I guess I will have to scour youtube review, if I want to buy camera in the future.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, you made me fall in love with my first DSLR and later on my first Mirrorless, because of you I went full frame and have been able to capture beautiful family moments. Thank you again 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I found you guys when I was looking for advice to buy my first serious digital camera and have been with you ever since. You have too much talent to let that behemoth money machine consign you to history. Go guys! Can’t wait to enjoy the next chapter 😀👍
You guys are the best. Thank you for all the amazing videos over the years. I also starting reading DPReview in its website form ages ago, but when I discovered the RU-vid channel, I really felt like I had stumbled upon something special. Thank you, again... such a gem.
I'm sad. I felt like you guys were perhaps the Mr. Rogers Neighborhood of the Camera review world. Such a wholesome dad duo! Take a good break, we'll be here waiting for your next adventure guys!
Thank you guys! Thank you for your time, your effort, your energy, and just being generally awesome. This is a total travesty! I'm sure you and the others will quickly find work, and go on to bigger and brighter things, but the knowledge and community dying will be a huge loss to amateur and enthusiast photographers the world over!
@@eduardofrances They've moved to Petapixel, although Petapixel are renowned for having a terrible forum community mostly in thanks to a certain youtuber and his dozens of alts that their forum let him post his obnoxious comments on.
It is sad news for all of us😢. I need DPReview, both of you give me a lot good ideas on photography, and light up my life during i enjoy most of my dinner time for the past few years.
You guys are among the most respected reviewers in the business - I am confident your adventures will continue and thanks in advance for taking us along.
Supporter here for more than 10 years. I’m confident that you guys will do BETTER going solo, and I’ll be following whatever you guys do. 100% class act, 100% fantastic.
This is terrible and sad news for sure!! Appreciate everything both of you and DPReview have provided through the years. Your knowledge and unbiased reviews were always the videos I waited for when there was a product release. The website was always my go-to for in-depth equipment reviews to help me make the best decision in purchasing gear. Thank you to everyone involved at DPReview. I look forward to following both of you to see what is next!
The news that dpreview and you guys are being terminated is terrible news. As you say, this is devastating to the entire photographic community. Hope you two will find a way to continu, and I am sure you will have an immense following right from the start. Much respect and a big hug to you guys and to the entire staff of dpreview.
This news is terrible! I can’t believe it. Chris, Jordan I’ve always enjoyed your videos and learned so much from them. Please find a way to keep these videos coming. I will follow wherever you go. Thanks for all the great videos.
dpreview has been my go-to and has helped me in my choices of buying cameras. thank you dpreview for all the hard work and dedication. also to chris and jordan, thanks.
Chris and Jordan and hopefully the rest of the incredible staff of DPReview.. see you on PetaPixel. I’ve relied on DPReview for over 20 years. You are the best at what you do.
Gutted. I started my photography journey last May and have gone all in since then. The DP Review forum has and still continues to be a huge part of my learning, as well as the videos. Thank you, you've given so much to the community.
This was about the only real photography source i still subscribed to and again it's been cut by some corporate talking heads , Guys you did an awesome job, i hope you set up a channel of you own in the near future
