It’s the Fujifilm X100V.

The Fujifilm X100V was not only Chris’ favourite camera, but their X100V review was also the highest viewed video EVER on DPRTV.

DPReview is Closing: Good Bye after 25 Years of Excellent Service

DPReview has just announced they will be closing DPReview.com forever.

This is a very sad news for the photography community. Something I guess nobody saw coming nor thought would ever be possible.

Also their youtube channel will shut down.

We can just wish all the best to the people working on DPR. I am sure your competence and knowledge will be appreciated and needed on other platforms, that will be happy to see you join their team. In fact, Chris and Jordan joined PetaPixel already.
