Show HN: DigicamFinder – open-sourced DPReview camera data

177 点作者 petergreen大约 2 年前
Ever since the DPReview closure announcement <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=35248296" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=35248296</a> we were thinking how to preserve the 25 years of valuable DPReview camera data. Archive.org has been great, but it&#x27;s not usable by the general public.<p>The best way to keep it safe going forward, is to have the community own it, so we open sourced it: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;open-product-data&#x2F;digital-cameras">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;open-product-data&#x2F;digital-cameras</a><p>I&#x27;m aware of a number of attempts to make product data open-sourced, but none have the power of the photo geeks behind it :)<p>Thoughts or ideas? + really looking for some contribution love.

Wow, did you get this up in the 10 day time period since they announced closure? It took me 2 months for my project.<p>I think I should really look into just scraping &#x2F; importing the lens data at this point for cameralenspicker.com. I’ve been hand inputting the data… but it’s just too slow.

This is just awesome. DPReview has been the gold standard for digital cameras and I am heartbroken to see it close. Thank you for performing such an incredibly generous act with the DPReview data.

What&#x27;s the copyright status? The specs you have on there now should be fine, you can&#x27;t copyright lists of facts. But if you put the reviews up will Amazon come after you?

Are the plans for a comparison feature? This was invaluable when trying to figure out what changed in various versions of the same camera family.

Nice work! Wish there was a site that held information on more than just cameras - expanded to all types of electronics, for instance.. seeing all the hardware from a manufacturer over time is so useful for making buying decisions.<p>EDIT: Ah cool, I see this: &quot;OPD plans to expand our dataset to other product types.&quot; source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;open-product-data&#x2F;digital-cameras&#x2F;commit&#x2F;fe9a0b3be6a5d13b9189b5e66ad65cd2ff496041">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;open-product-data&#x2F;digital-cameras&#x2F;commit&#x2F;...</a>

Great stuff! Curious if you plan on integrating some of the existing dpreview user reviews and Q&amp;A. I have found those to be quite helpful as well. Also, the sample galleries might be too much to ask for given the storage requirements but wanted to see if this is part of future plans as well.

&gt; If you do anything with photography, you probably know that Amazon, being Amazon, is shutting down DPReview.com, which housed some of the most complete data and knowledge related to digital cameras online.<p>Amazon also owns IMDB. I hope someone is making backups ...

That is a great project!<p>Do you plan to enhance the UI, for example to be able to filter by other data, like zoom or weight?<p>Or are you more interested in the data and prefer others to build other websites on top of them?

Impressive that it was only a two day period between the shutdown announcement and the first version of DigicamFinder going up - well done to all those involved.

I used to love this website, and remember using it almost 20 years ago to purchase an Olympus c-5060.<p>Great work!
