The content and scope of the reviews has changed over time, but the basic formula (extensive descriptions of controls and menus, consistent, repeatable studio tests, side-by-side pixel-level comparisons) have remained unchanged since the earliest days. In 2004 a shorter 'concise' review format was introduced for compact cameras,[4] and group tests were added in 2008.[5] The website's camera reviews have always offered side-by-side comparison images and test results from competing cameras. In 2010 an interactive comparison widget was introduced that allowed visitors to compare studio results from any camera in the site's database.[6] Later widgets added the ability to compare other test results (such as noise and dynamic range) between cameras. Extensive real-world sample galleries are available for all reviewed (and some unreviewed) cameras and lenses.
Until February 2010 dpreview.com did not score cameras numerically, but used an often controversial six-level rating system (from best to worst: Highly Recommended, Recommended, Above Average, Average, Below Average, Poor). The site now scores all cameras and lenses using up to 11 categories (which in turn are based on 'nearly 60 aspects of camera performance and specification'[7]). Two new discretionary awards ('Gold' and 'Silver') were introduced at the same time as the scoring system.
