I'm afraid there is not that much to win for both sides, Toni. Even if we do test a lens and with review results document its performance, it's still a used lens, typically full of electronics and other stuff that could fail at any time, if it is a fairly modern lens.
In addition, the investments Klaus mentioned remain. To test lenses new to the market, there is hardly an alternative to buying them. And the biggest investment is to buy a high resolution camera. To give you an idea: for the Nikon section alone I had to buy the D850, D7200 and for Z reviews the Z7 and Z50, plus lenses.
That's why for example L-mount reviews are unlikely to happen, until either Klaus or me feel the urge to explore that system for our own personal needs.
The location doesn't matter, at least not to me
As described by Klaus, the main issue is time. I do have the cameras (for quite a while already) and a selection of Z lenses... I am simply lacking time to move on with the reviews.

The point I want to make is that your website is checked by people all over the world and I think your audience is more in US and Europe where there are still quite a many Nikon users. Does the location matter so much in reality?
