A snapshit is taken because you are more interested in the camera than the picture.

Exactly.

You can avoid this by using basic-tier equipment. Realize that a camera is just a light box and that the lens is simply a light filter.

Film is great for this because the SLRs are super basic and force you to have good technique.

If I took the photo, it's a photograph.
If someone else took the photo, it's a snapshit.
Simple.

Snapshits don't exist. It is /p/'s collective conscience trying to be cool.

Then why are you so defensive? I smell BS. You're reeling from being called out as a snapshitter.
>muh even the work of the world's greatest photographer would be labelled a snapshit
>world's greatest photographer
>implying that is even possible with such a subjective art
You think like a casual. No wonder you snapshit.

He's not wrong though. If Migrant Mother were posted here by anon and wasn't a historically significant image, it would be bashed for being a low contrast centered snapshot of a random old hag.
