(BUSINESS WIRE) SEATTLE, WA-May 14, 2007-Leading online retailer Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) today announced it has acquired www.dpreview.com, the web's most comprehensive site for digital camera information and reviews. Founded in 1998 by Phil Askey, dpreview.com provides unbiased reviews and original content regarding the latest in digital cameras, and offers a host of features and forums designed to make it easy for consumers to find the camera that's right for them. With its unique voice and in-depth technical reviews, dpreview.com draws millions of unique visitors each month.

"Dpreview.com is by far the most authoritative source anywhere for straight talk about new digital cameras," said Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.com. "We at Amazon.com have been their fans for a long time, and we extend a big welcome to the dpreview.com team."

"One of the difficulties of operating dpreview.com independently has been the balance between producing content and delivering new site features," said Phil Askey, founder of dpreview.com. "Now, with the support of Amazon, I'll be able to devote more of my time to expanding and improving our features - such as product reviews and discussion forums while still delivering the high-quality content that our readers have come to expect."

Dpreview.com offers in-depth reviews of the latest digital cameras and accessories, active discussion forums, digital photography and imaging news, sample images, a dynamic digital camera buyers' guide, side-by-side comparisons of the most popular models, and the web's most comprehensive database of digital camera features and specifications.

Dpreview.com will continue to function as a stand-alone operation based in London.
