Pixel-Peeper is a lens and camera comparison site. You can examine full size pictures from a specific lens or camera (more than 1,000,000 photos are available), also based on a specific setting (e.g. aperture, focal length or ISO). If you'd like to find out more about how to interpret sample images, check out the tutorial.

Each lens/camera page also lists a number of online stores and eBay auctions along with availability that you can use to purchase equipment, or simply to check prices in your country.

Registration is free of charge. It will allow you to:

• Share your opinions about a lens or camera with other users
• Set up notifications that will send you an email whenever there are new photos or auctions for the equipment you're interested in
• Specify lenses and cameras you currently have and the ones on your wish list and track used and new prices for them
• See which photos from your flickr account can be found on pixel-peeper

You can do this by signing up to the pixel-peeper group on flickr and following posting directions for automated addition (may not work for all lenses because of quantity limits set). You can also manually add your photos. You'll need to register first, then go to My Pixel-Peeper and indicate individual photos you'd like to contribute along with the camera/lens used. The only requirement is the photos must be at least 7MP in size and the original size must available to all flickr users. Digicam photos are currently not accepted using this mechanism.

You can use the contact form on the about page or go to the Pp flickr group to start a general discussion.

We will not give any of your data to third parties. We will not send you any emails except when specifically requested by you (e.g. notifications, user name & password reminder).

Pixel-peeper works like a search engine for photos (e.g. google images). Only images openly accessible through flickr are listed in form of thumbnails linking to a destination page on flickr. This means that the same photos can be found through many other searches and websites. If you don't want your photos to be viewed by other people, you should change the privacy settings in flickr (either generally or for a specific photo). Still, if for some reason you don't want your photos to be found via pixel-peeper, please send your request via flickr email to the flickr user "zwieciu". Your photos will then be removed them from the database within 24 hours.
