Calling analogue photograph an obsolete technology is false, considering no substitute has yet been found for large format photograph, in aerial recognition,for example. The amount of information gathered by a large photographic plate in one single shot can't yet be rivaled by digital media.
There are many applications where analog photograph (and related technology) still has a long way to go before being declared obsolete. One of those applications is (surprise!) in chip fabrication plants. -- Rnbc
APS doesn't produce true panoramic pictures, does it? Don't they just cut the top and bottom of off the pictures so that they have a higher ratio of length to width, suggesting panoramic view?
I adjusted the APS/Pano segment. I (and most any serious about film formats) do not consider APS to be true panoramic format and would not offer it as same. It is a cropping of the 35mm film, nothing more. If there were to be a miniature film format in the dimension of the cropped segment that APS utilizes for "panoramic" shots, a format designed specifiacally for panoramas in miniature, then yes, I could accept that.

A photograph is an image created using a record of light falling on a light-sensitive surface, usually photographic film or an electronic imager such as a CCD or a CMOS chip.
I felt this article needed a link to a full disambiguation page, rather than calling out one or two other possibilities in the header. So, I created Photograph (disambiguation) and put everything in there I could think of. Aguerriero ( ţ) ( ć) ( ë) 19:07, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
(1) Unless there's some rule I'm not aware of, the sources for an article should be in the article itself. Claiming in an edit summary that the sources are all in linked articles, besides being hard to easily verify, isn't sufficient.
(2) I don't believe everything is sourced, even by the above method. Шизомби 22:19, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Well then I'm back to my original point; you have to be specific. Tag the specific claims you think are not properly refed. Maury 23:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
I've tagged this article with the Howto template for WP:NOTHOWTO. The section on preservation reads like an instruction manual, which is not appropriate for Wikipedia. I'd have a go at fixing it, but don't have time right now. - dmmaus ( talk) 23:00, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
It might be good to add a section on the Blue Marble photo from the Apollo missions:
/info/en/?search=The_Blue_Marble
It may be one of the most socially important photographs ever produced.

The portrait File:Loujain_Alhathloul.jpg has been added to the "Types of photographs" section seven times since December 7 by user:49.178.80.27. It has been removed by user:Mad Jim Bey, user:MrOllie, and user:Laterthanyouthink. There is an edit warring report open, but no-one has brought it to the talk page, so here we are.
Clearly this is a disputed addition, and should remain out unless consensus is reached to include it. The IP is claiming that this is an appropriate addition as an example of a mugshot, but the section in question is about various formats and technologies, not the different uses of photos. I agree with the removals (and will remove the latest addition when I'm done with this thread). Furthermore, a "mugshot" is a booking photo of a criminal, not a passport phots.
