Sans Mirror  

About once a year I do a complete pass through my Web sites. That's many thousands of pages to edit, update, and sometimes fix. I've just started that again for sansmirror.com: every page (other than older news stories) front to back will get at least a brief checkup and some surgery has been done where necessary. 

As part of this work I've done some pruning, simplifying, and reorganization. The goal is for everything to be more accurate and clear. I also updated my recommended travel kits, made a full pass on all the articles on the site to make sure everything is as current and as accurate as I can make it. I even added a couple of small articles here and there to complete a thought. 

Note: The lens data pages are still a work in progress. Where you see "Lens Specifications" at the end of the title for the page, that page has been through the most recent edit process. Pages without those words in the title have not. This will be a slow process I'll continue to work on.

Meanwhile, other things are afoot. As I noted at my main site, bythom.com, sansmirror is now really in a state of torpor. I can't possibly catch up, let alone keep up, with reviewing all the new products in the mirrorless realm. My main emphasis has been on Nikon Z System mirrorless for the past year, and that will continue, so I invite you to follow that on the zsystemuser.com sister site rather than try to find that information here, where it gets buried in with all the other makers. The zsystemuser site also has information about the Nikon mirrorless cameras that isn’t here on sansmirror, partly because if I put it here everyone would ask for the same level of breadth and depth for all the other mounts.

I'll continue to write periodic News/Views articles here when it is warranted, plus the current camera and autofocus lens databases will be updated and maintained. I will from time to time review cameras and lenses. But the volume of material I was producing—hundreds of new articles and reviews a year—will decline as I focus my efforts elsewhere.

As always, you can support my work by clicking on the ad at the bottom of every page for this site's exclusive advertiser (B&H) should you be looking to buy any new camera or computer gear. Starting your purchase via a click from this site results in B&H continuing to pay me enough to afford all this site's ongoing costs.

Thanks for your support over the past decade+. I hope you've enjoyed the ride (and will continue to do so).
