Photolari is an independent media outlet based in Barcelona, Spain, founded in 2016 by journalists Iker Morán and Álvaro Méndez. It is defined as the reference medium in Spanish on photography, video and audiovisual technology, standing out for its direct, critical and often ironic editorial style. Its content is not only limited to technical reviews, but also covers current events in the sector, reports on the industry and reflections on visual culture, always under the premise of providing rigorous information without losing a touch of entertainment and skepticism regarding brand marketing. On their YouTube channel, the team offers a mix of in-depth reviews of equipment (cameras, lenses and accessories), coverage of international trade shows and their well-known news and debate format. Through its web portal and social networks, Photolari fosters an active community of enthusiasts and professionals who value its honesty in pointing out product shortcomings, becoming an essential guide for those seeking informed purchasing decisions and a less "fanboy" view of photographic technology.
