New Feature: Sort Reviews by Date or Rating
We’ve just launched an exciting new addition to Photography Blog - you can now sort our camera reviews by manufacturer, rating and date.
Previously we’ve just had a big long list of all our reviews, with the newest at the top, but you can now alternatively choose to browse them by a particular manufacturer, either by date or by rating. Want to quickly find out which are the best Canon cameras? It’s now just a couple of clicks away.
This great new feature works with every camera review that we’ve published since we re-designed the site back in March - that’s a massive 77 of the latest cameras to choose from!
And remember, you can also check out the Best Cameras list to find out which products come with the official Photography Blog seal of approval.
