Answer 2

There are a lot of terms that have been used by photographers for decades, multiple decades which since the introduction of digital cameras have started to be misused by the ignorant. More: Editing means to sort and keep only the best of the best for publication, exhibition or display. It has become bastardized to mean photo manipulation and/or retouching ... helped along buy Adobe. Zooming in was to use a zoom lens to fill the cameras frame with a well composed image without having to physically moving closer to the subject. Now it seems that many P&S cameras call cropping, zooming. Taking a photo is the actual act of composing the photograph in the camera and pressing the shutter release at the appropriate time. No it seems to me being the subject of the photo as in "Why do I always take a bad picture? What do I need to do to pose better?" Some P&S cameras have lens protector that covers the lens when it retracts in to the camera. Some people call these shutters There is a strong "feeling" that ALL photography is made in Photoshop and the original image is just incidental. There are still many who think if they buy a DSLR, all of their images will magically produce "professional" pictures. Many people call an out of focus image blurry. Blur is of course caused by camera or subject movement when using exposures that are too long to prevent blur. People call the noise generated by high ISO's grain. Grain of course only applies to film. Many people want to use their DSLR's like a P&S camera using it in "auto" and holding it at arm's length like a P&S camera and then wonder why there is so much blur caused by motion in their images To many people ANY DSLR is a "professional" camera Many people seem to thing that because the camera is digital, no school is necessary to become a pro someday. The list goes on .
