For brands

Propose a product for coverage.

Aperture Authority helps photographers make better decisions about cameras, lenses, lighting, and the tools around them. Tell us what your product does, who it serves, and where it fits. We will follow up when there is an editorial fit.

Opens your email app with the details we need.

The proposal

Give us the useful details.

A direct product link and a clear use case are more helpful than a general press release. An affiliate program is useful to mention, but optional.

  1. 01

    Exact product

    Model name and a direct product page, including the variant you want considered.

  2. 02

    Timing

    Availability or launch date, and any useful press materials or specifications.

  3. 03

    Sample terms

    Tell us whether a unit is available, and whether it would be a loan or a keep sample.

  4. 04

    The buyer question

    Who is it for, and what choice or problem does it help a photographer resolve?

After you write

A straightforward handoff.

We look at the product against the questions readers already bring to our buying guides and teaching articles. If it is a fit, we discuss the possible coverage, timing, and sample terms before anything ships.

Our current gear recommendations are research-based and labeled that way. Any future coverage based on a unit in hand will be identified as firsthand. Samples, sponsorships, and affiliate relationships are disclosed wherever relevant.

Editorial conclusions, scores, and placement remain ours. Brands can flag factual errors, while coverage and rankings follow our published editorial policy and scoring method.

Have a specific product in mind?
