I think we should make this thread sticky and required reading for all posters. Obey the stylists or be ridiculed in 2007.

It may be starting to become accepted by some dictionaries as a "variant", but that's because so many people have been spelling it wrong.No, Lense is a (common on the internet) misspelling of lens

I think it has to do with being a bit lazy and having to type less. You know - a bit like those who never use the correct capitals.

capitals, like sharpness, is a bourgeous concept...

Does "lense" rhyme with "bokeh"? Or maybe it should be spelled "lenseh".

GAS induced by the creamy bokeh of a minty 'cron (despite cleaning marks) lense on an M8 - what amazing sharpness from non-analogue photography!

You guys are making me feel bad now. I was going to start a thread called:
"Bokeh Back Mountain Lens Poll and some of that lense Bamooka every one is talking about, a lense test of a mint *-bay M8 and 40mm filters on 50mm lens and how I got GAS, but then survived thanks to some magenta shampoo that I got from my dentist."
But now I am not going to post it.

It makes me wretch every time I hear the tonal range of an image described as being "creamy."
"Bokeh" is a strong second.
"Ooh -- the bokeh of that lens is soooo creamy!"
GAAAAK!!!
I better stop saying "creamy", even it is cream cheese!

If "mintish" is totally disgusting, what about "mint-minus-ish"?

Frank: In the USA I often hear the term: I am 110% sure. Now that's a mint+ for you.
