Maybe I should have used better words: There actually is a
difference between photo and snapshot ("Foto" und "Knipsen"
in German). Photos involve thinking and mastering your tools
(camera settings, and if you develop yourself, the whole
process involved in that). You commonly thing about light,
counterlight, maybe picture compisition, angle, height,
perspective, zoom, and so on. Snapshots don't require that:
they're just mere "point & click" actions with an option (!)
of having a good photo among 100 snapshots. :-)

Oh... Canon EOS-50 and Senit 12sb ("Zenith 12xp") with a few
very special add-ons still here. ;-)
