    What are some of your photography pet peeves? This topic is intended to be funny so let's come up with some of your more humorous things that people do that annoy you. None of this is personal; this is just to have something to laugh at.

    1. People who spell lens "lense".

    2. People who walk around in crowds with selfie sticks out filming themselves walking around.

    *mike drop*.

    Apologize to the bunch of you here who do this but…

    People whose profile photo features them posing with a camera, especially when it's a sneaky surreptitious type of look.

    People who say "eye-so" instead of I-S-O.

    People who show up at the last second for an event and then block the view of the people behind them while shooting with their iPad

    Or show up at the last second and hip-check you for that last inch of space that they will NEVER fit into...

    Using the LCD screen on a camera with a perfectly good viewfinder.

    Holding anything above your head that blocks the view of those behind you.

    Walking around with a camcorder in your hand, recording your whole trip and seeing nothing but the camcorder's LCD screen.

    Fanboys. Anyone who inserts their brand of choice as 'better' or 'best' compared to other brand users in any conversation about cameras.

    Using the camera with the lens hood on backwards. Fine for storage or transport, but a no-no for shooting.

    Holding your camera with your hand on top of the lens instead of underneath it.

    Yeah, I saw a "pro" do that a couple of weeks ago.
