Michael Reichmann (MR) (25 June 1944[1] – 18 May 2016[3]) was an internationally recognized Canadian landscape, travel and street fine-arts photographer as well as videographer, author, blogger, workshopper, independent technical consultant, camera tester, software developer and entrepeneur. He is best known for having been the president of Batteries Included in the mid-1980s and for founding one of the earliest web sites dedicated to photography, The Luminous Landscape (LuLa), between 1995 and 1997.[2] In his last years, he created the Luminous Endowment project, a charitable fund to assist talented photographers through grants. Both projects are continued by Kevin Raber and others.

In his various capacities at Batteries Included he was frequently interviewed in consumer and industry publications such as InfoWorld.[nb 1]

Reichmann proposed a new digital exposure method called exposing to the right (ETTR) in 2003.[5][6] He was also an advocate of open raw image file formats.
