I agree, he is occasionally inconsistent or off somewhere weird on a 
particular part of a review, and that is sometimes frustrating, 
sometimes illuminating. On he other hand, he actually cares about the 
cameras and is throughly engaged in the process of evaluating them, 
which is a plus. And he also provides much more info than anyone else. 
And I think he really tries to be fair, whether it always looks like it 
from out here or not.

Compared to the rigidly formatted and very brief reviews in Pop Photo 
that never show how they came to their conclusions and the drivel in PC 
Mag, he seems perfect. And way too much of the word content of other web 
review sites seems to come directly from the manufacturers' promotional 
material. Not to say they don't have useful info as well, but they 
aren't up to dpreview.

I just wish there were more and better lens reviews.
