I can't go into to much details on how the process will look like at the moment. When we launch our first beta site and start giving grades and rating products based on aggregated data we will explain more how this grading and recommendation will work.
But as with everything else when it comes to TestFreaks if you have suggestions on what are important factors when choosing a digital camera for example, please let us know so we can consider it in our grading and recommendation engines.

I'm not sure whether you've talked about the rating on some other thread or not. The thing I often feel with rating on other sites, not necessarily consumer electronics, is that the rating and grading by visitors often get smudged. Some people tend to be less serious than others or exaggerate there opinions, thus making the quality of the rating poor. But on the other hand I could be wrong. Maybe I'm the problem since I (in these cases) rarely follow mainstream opinions according to the ratings. But I mean on these sites they have like a general rating for the product, so it does not really say anything about the product. I mean a product could look really great and get ratings from that, even though the functionality is really bad. Have you decided how to tackle this problem or is it still a working process?
