Porst is indeed a German company. To the best of my knowledge they never had manufacturing capability, rather they sold OEM-ed stuff under their own name. Most likely different OEMs as well. Around here (the Netherlands) the Porst stuff does not fetch any real money at used-camera markets. For what that means.. Wilko
