Isn't this a very old-fashioned view of photography?
I'm guessing that young people today will find very little of interest in this template. They'll be scratching their heads and wondering why things like digital photography, DSLRs, digicams, and mobile telephones aren't anywhere to be found.
If there are no objections I'll try to add some more up-to-date stuff tomorrow or the next day. --RenniePet (talk) 07:17, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
Maybe 'Genres' rather than 'Forms'; remove the peripheral subjects to another area and maybe make new templates for sub-categories. Might take on this if i get the time and patience. Ideas anyone? Baffle gab1978 (talk) 02:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed 'spin-off' of digital and analogue subjects into new templates
If no-one objects, I may spin 'digital' subjects off into a new template; that subject area could then have a more comprehensive template without overloading this one. I may do the same with 'analogue' subjects and leave this template as as a general one for both areas. But I'll see. Comments? Baffle gab1978 (talk) 07:48, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Add?
Would Free-Form Select be subject to insertion? --Bapho talk 14:37, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Categorisation of "bokeh"
Bokeh should be in "Technical terms" instead of "Techniques". It is not a technique, it is a way of describing the manner in which a lens defocuses. 86.43.160.48 (talk) 03:43, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Expanded or Collapsed by default?
I feel that using this template on a page can make it dominate a small page. I have felt inhibited in using it, where I would not have hesitated if its default state had been "collapse". (Have I got the terminology right?) For example, Royal Photographic Society is about "Photography" (of course!), but the full content of the template would probably rarely be of interest to the typical reader of that page. Digital Negative has 3 templates, but fortunately 2 are normally collapsed. Yet there is no good reason why this one should be expanded and the other 2 collapsed. Perhaps there is a good reason why it is how it is; or perhaps I'm the only one who cares either way. Views? Barry Pearson 16:26, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
I should have checked this earlier. The change from collapsed to expanded was made on 31 October 2010? by Fixblor. No reason was given as far as I can tell. Given that this is a "Highly visible template", I don't want to step on any toes, so I'll wait for discussion before considering a change. (I am an autoconfirmed user). Barry Pearson 16:50, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
There was no response to the above, so I've reverted it to the pre-31 October 2010 state of "autocollapse". (The effect doesn't appear to be consistent across the pages that use it. Perhaps this is to do with caching?) Barry Pearson 16:14, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
The "autocollapse" was not the effect I wanted. It is better than nothing, because it collapses the template when among others, but not when by itself, which is often the case. (Especially with shortish articles where the template tends to dominate). So I have changed the state to "collapsed". I now have more confidence using the "Photography" template on articles that are certainly about photography but where most users won't need the expanded template.

35 mm equivalent focal length
Would you add 35 mm equivalent focal length to the "Technical terms" group? --Madcrayon (talk) 02:57, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

State
Need to set the state to "collapsed". It is too big.203.109.161.2 (talk) 19:49, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Add the topic of Panography to the section of Photographic techniques within the template. Panography is a type of photographic style specifically distinct from Panoramic photography. 75.150.214.113 (talk) 20:52, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

Low-key photography
Worth adding Low-key photography to genres? It's not a coined genre, haven't found much on WP about it, so I created it. Included some of by FA grad photos into the article.
