What are some common photography-related spelling errors?
Here s a short list. Incorrect Correct Amature Amateur Aperature, apature, etc Aperture Cannon Canon (the camera company) Copywrite, copyrite, etc Copyright Flourescent Fluorescent Infared, infered, inferred, etc Infrared Lense* Lens Marco Macro Manuel Manual SRL SLR (ie: single lens reflex) Wide angel Wide angle * Oddly, Merriam-Webster claim that lense is an acceptable alternative spelling for lens. However, I have never seen lense in print and the Oxford English Dictionary lists only lens, so I m presuming it was a temporary lapse of judgement on their part, like claiming that cigaret is correct spelling.
