I use the pocketworld camera database. The UK coverage is as accurate as any other you are likely to find, and is updated at least monthly, if not more.

Coverage in other European countries is not quite so comprehensive, as the database is effectively updated by the users reporting new cameras. As the site was originally aimed at UK drivers, it's only understandable that the European coverage is not quite so great.

They do however encourage anyone who comes across a camera in Europe that is not in the database to report it, so that the database can be updated. If you happen to be the first person to report such a camera, they will reward you with a lifetime membership.
