We are a bunch of German gear-heads interested in manual lenses. We all use mirrorlessTechnically speaking most DSLR, point-and-shoot and smartphone cameras are mirrorless, in that they don’t have internal mirrors. However, mirrorless camera is a specific term for a camera where the sensor is directly exposed to light and the photographer has a preview of the potential image at all times to view on an electronic viewfinder. For example the Olympus and Panasonic micro four-thirds cameras are mirrorless. More Sony Alphas and we also own an review a few native AF lenses but our focus is on manual ones because we enjoy shooting those the most.

Initially, it was just Phillip – hence the domain name – but for some time now Jannik and Bastian have been regular contributors and we make most decisions as a team. This way we can cover many more lenses than I could alone and it is also a lot more fun than working alone.
