Must
See Web Sites

It's as hard to find
good sites on the crowded Web as it is to find the
people in this camouflage scene. This page is
designed to help. |
There are so many sites on the Web
that search engines have become a time consuming way
to find what you want. The signal to noise ratio is
way too low. These are the sites that I return to over
and over again. Some of them are news & reviews sites,
some are advertisers of mine. Check them out, I think
you'll like them

with products to test, with no return favors asked.

their products and are reachable by phone or e-mail
without having to work your way through layers of
staff people. Give them a look next time you're in the

Phil Askey's site is a
beautiful piece of work backed up by some amazing
technology. Loaded with reviews and forums, one of
it's most unique features is the Digital Camera
Comparison Engine side-by-side comparison. This system
allows you to list the specs of two or more cameras
side by side so you can see how they differ. According
to Phil the main draw to the site is the daily news
updates, regular camera reviews, technical articles,
comparison database, galleries, discussion forums and
the all new digital photography glossary.
