I don't know why, but this is probably the funniest thing I've read all day. And I'd also have to add, if someone hasn't already:

Coated vs. uncoated

And some comments: I'm always in favor of Chewbacca, and - for a very different reason - Mary Ann.


Cheers,

I think the all-time favorite is "Which (lens) is sharper?" for this category.

We all know that the one with the most cracks in it has the most potential to be "sharp" :D

Oh, that and "I just got a camera: which lens?" is the runner-up. :)
 
I cringe at this one "Is Leica really worth the money?"

"professional photographers vs amateur photographers"
 
"What are you listening to at the moment"


same poster: "I think my collection is finally done" followed by "My new lens just arrived!" followed by "Been thinking about completing my backup b&w street kit lately.."

But OK if you want 100 different answers to choose from :)

"Which lens should I buy" usually qualified by listing all the ones not to mention.
 
"Which is the best FSU? (I'm not a collector; I want to take pictures.)"
"Are Zorkis better than FEDs?"
"Which is sharper - Industar.22 or 50?"

Then there's the, "I don't want to cut film so I'd prefer a camera with a removable back..." :cool: which is occasionally followed a few days later by the question, "Where are these light leaks coming from?" :eek:
