What are the worst words in photography?

[Mute-on]

I think I'll pick up a Jupiter lens for my new Leica M2 ... :bang:

Worst words actually are names, and I'm not gonna write them here...

Why are you taking pictures?

Although I am sure it appears in the preceding 15 pages:

"Blown highlights ..."

That looks so much better in HDR

I know nothing about cameras - especially when said on ebay.

"Have you seen the -
charger
cable

Old School Type Camera !!! 😱

"The best camera is the one you have with you."

No frickin' duh. No need to justify your phone cameras, but it doesn't mean standalone cameras are obsolete either.

"How do you like this shot I took?"
"I find it....ah...interesting."

''What you want to say with your photographs?''
and
''That's a good one!''

Happened to me with several rolls of Kodachrome I took for a friend's wedding: "We are really sorry, we developed all these as C41. Nobody brings slides in here anymore, and the tech is new. Maybe you can see if there are any here you like, and just pay for those."

Lens IQ, YMMV, FWIW.. basically acronym overused on the forums

You can't blame people for being poor/cheap😀

Plus Jupiters are nice lenses.

On film when I said I still used 35mm - "Wow, I haven't seen that in ages...it's so ANTIQUE". :bang:

"Why can't your lens zoom?"

Some guest at work when I was just documenting a class passes on a message to my colleague to pass onto me:
"Tell her that she can use my photos if she wants to."

On a wedding at work, again, shooting for internal use:
"Excuse me, but who are you? I'm the PROFESSIONAL photographer, sorry if I get in your way."

and when I had a small point and shoot for a relative's birthday and my uncle brings in his bling DSLR kit and I say I don't need a big camera:
"at least I earn a lot of money [from shooting with my kit]"

I must look really dumb or something for people to think those thoughts about my skills and such. :'(
