Wooo, looks like DPReview have been saved. Has anyone heard of Gear Patrol though?

Feels odd that such an instituition of the web needs stewardship by a lesser-known entity.

While I don't know much about Gear Patrol's business side, you're correct, they are doing something right to be able to buy DPReview. I've heard they have similar web traffic compared to PetaPixel (this info is from a recent PetaPixel podcast) and that the owner of Gear Patrol is a fan of DPReview. I hope their words hold true, existing staff remains and the site continues as usual.

I agree with you about the written articles vs video reviews in general.

That does sound like good news! I hope they'll continue to do well, maybe expand DPReview a bit in the best case scenario.
