| Pros: |
- Attractive collection of girls
- Good lighting and composition in most sets
- Site navigation is fine
- I guess the videos are OK, although check out other reviews for those... it's not my scene
- Pictures look OK at 1200 pixel resolution
- A few natural bushes, in addition to the usual dominance of completely shaved models. |
| Cons: |
- So-called "poster size" images (the "big" size option) are horrible quality with no fine detail in the vast majority of photosets. |
| Bottom Line: |
Sorry, but I just had to blow the cover on this site. The Best Porn gave Zemani's image quality an "A+" which is so, so misleading. (Misleading enough that I signed up in the hope that things were good there now, but I was very disapointed.)
You guys at The Best Porn should take a second look -- you said the images are so sharp even when you zoom in on the big images (which are 4000 pixels or higher.) Well that's because they've applied HEAPS of false sharpening. Maybe 1 or 2 percent of sets are OK, but the other 98% are full of digital artifacts like jagged edges and pixelation in the model's eyes that look like they upscaled the image from a smaller size. Last year I commented on the full-size sample images, and they have taken them off the site now, only offering small samples in pop-up boxes. I'm not surprised. Beware!
It's a shame, because if the images were high quality like Met-art (which they're not) then they'd have a great site because the girls, settings and compositions are just fine. |

| Pros: |
-3 sizes for photosets: 800, 1200, 4000 px.
-zip file for each size px for each photoset.
-Online slideshow for photosets.
-Can download the videos or view as streaming.
-Material is exclusive.
-Tiny, unobtrusive watermark bottom right hand corner of photos.
-Vids have a larger watermark than the photos, small but not tiny, placed at bottom right corner of the picture.
-No DRM.
-No timeout from site.
-Can rate the model, photoset, and video. But this is a matter of personal taste, and I don't agree with a lot of the scores.
-Simple site navigation. Easy to get to the sets and videos of each model.
-One update per day (photoset or video).
-Most photosets have 100+ pictures each. |
| Cons: |
-Videos download as avi files. No other choice of format.
-Videos download as one file size only (no choice of high, medium, low resolution).
-Downloaded files have no descriptive name. Instead, the download file name is a number with "big", "medium" or "small" attatched, depending on whether you are downloading the big, medium or small px set. Downloaded videos are named with a number and the prefix "zemani-v".
-Search is basic but adequate. Can search by model name, age, or hair color. There is a limited number of models and photosets and videos, so this is not a big con. |
| Bottom Line: |
I resisted joining zemani as long as I could. But some of the models at this site are absolutely mouth-watering. I want to sink my teeth and other
body parts into these gorgeous creatures.
Although there are a nice number of photos and photosets for a site that started in 2006, I can't help wishing there were more photosets for my favorite models. Most models only have 1 or 2 photosets.
Site stats (April 4, 2010):
photos 64,806
galleries 471
videos 130
130 videos sounds like a lot of videos. But like many other softcore sites, the videos are short, most less than 10 minutes in runtime. Even
though the videos might have a gorgeous model as the subject, like most softcore sites, the videos are mainly forgettable. The real value lies in the photosets.
The photographic quality of the videos is good to high, but the videos are just ok. I'm much more into softcore than hardcore, but at most softcore
sites, the videos are just plain boring, no matter how attractive the model is. I don't really understand the psychology of why softcore
photosets of a model can be arousing, but a softcore video of the same model is usually boring. That is my reaction to the videos at softcore teen mega-sites.
The TBP review of this site, release date 6 Mar 2010, states the video "content ranges from softcore nude portraits to pussy spreads, girl-girl erotic posing, and more." I saw a number of videos, not all, and the only
content I saw was strictly softcore: no pussy spread, no girl-girl interaction that went beyond two girls that were nude. I found no solitary
or mutual masturbation, no toys, nothing that remotely approached hardcore porn.
There are some videos where the model performs a strip-tease. But you get better, more exciting strip tease at college night at a bar, where the
strippers are non-professional, probably less attractive than the zemani models, but they put on a much better show than the zemani models.
Also, the canned soundtrack on the videos is obtrusive; it adds nothing to the video, and often sounds annoying.
The models are 18 to very early 20s. Almost all Caucasian.
There is a nice mix of different settings/backgrounds for the photoshoots and videos: interior in a house, in a field, a stream, a lake or sea. Most photosets make nice use of colors in the background, the photosets are mainly nicely focused, the model is nicely featured in the shots. Not all shots are perfect, of course, but the photosets are equal to what you find at met-art, mplstudios, high quality glamor-style softcore photosets.
If you are looking for something more explicit than very softcore nudity, go elsewhere. If you are looking for softcore tease or strip tease, you are better off at a different site.
On a value basis, because the softcore teen mega-sites have far greater content, you are better off joining them first. But this is a nice
addition to the category, and the content will build over time. And the site does feature some absolutely yummy girls. |

*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.
