This is the last episode in my series of stupid photography terms that don’t make sense. In this episode, I give you my take on these terms.

1. Crop factor
2. Speedlite/ flashgun
3. Camera shake
4. Stop
5. F-stop
6. Fast lens
7. JPEG
8. RAW

And why I think that they are stupid. Most of them. I also tell you

• What if I use a phone to take photos and not a camera?
• What if I use a film camera?
• And finally, what I do.

All explained in plain English, without the irrelevant detail, in less than 27 (ish) minutes!

What is not to love?
