Viewscreen Squinters


Squinter [noun]
/skwint-er/

1. one who squints
2. a person (usually female) that looks better from afar (while squinting) than from close distance. Derogatory in its use.

When I used a film camera, crappy pictures were part of the deal. Take the shots, then a month or two later, get a few good prints. Now, with the magic of the viewscreen, i delete immediately all blurry or generally crappy photos. But I still get some disappointments -- viewscreen squinters. sure, it looks good in a 2inch screen, but blown up to 4x6, it just... blows. oh well.
