\n\tWe\u2019ve rebuilt one of the most requested features as part of the site\u2019s continuing redesign<\/p>\n

The updated site may still be in beta<\/em>, but we\u2019re pleased to be able to announce the return of one of its most requested features: full-spec camera comparisons.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

As well as big changes like this, we\u2019ve been making continued improvements and fixes behind the scenes<\/a>, but we\u2019re now in a position to address one of the most common requests: a camera comparison feature that makes proper use of our specs database.<\/p>\n

We appreciate how important it is to the community that the tool works well, and recognize that it wasn\u2019t up to your expectations at the site\u2019s launch. Having worked hard to build and maintain our database for more than 26 years, this was always something we planned to do, so we\u2019re pleased to be able to add it back to the site.<\/p>\n

The new camera comparison feature makes it easier to compare, especially on mobile<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n

The camera comparison feature works slightly differently than before but should also present the data in a way that\u2019s both easier to read and to compare, especially on mobile. We\u2019ll be making some adjustments in the coming days and weeks, and as always, we welcome your feedback<\/a> about how it can be further improved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

This isn\u2019t the end, by any means, though. A light theme version of the site is already being tested, to make sure it works reliably across the site, so please bear with us as we continue to improve the website.<\/p>\n

About the Author: <\/span>Richard graduated as a scientist but had a lot more fun writing and shooting for his university magazine. A number of years spent variously as a reporter, writer and editor on science and engineering titles combined his knowledge of science with his interest in images and words. But it was spotting the connections between emission spectra, white balance and all the nonsense he\u2019d taught himself playing around in Photoshop that helped kindle an interest in digital photography. Searching for a camera led to him discovering DPReview and Richard was recruited by Phil Askey in 2007. He\u2019s been combining his love of photography, communication and attention to detail (pedantry?) ever since.<\/p>\n

He has unusually strong opinions about lenses for the APS-C format.<\/p><\/div>\n
