Photography is packed with "rules" but it’s also packed with bad advice on how to follow or use these rules.

Today, we’re breaking down the biggest Photography and editing myths that photographers still believe — and what actually works in 2025.

From sharpening misconceptions to clarity confusion, ISO paranoia, calibration myths, and the truth about Auto mode… this video is going to fix a LOT of bad editing habits.

In this video you’ll learn:
• Why sharpening doesn’t actually make a blurry photo sharp
• The difference between Clarity and real detail
• Why ISO 100 isn’t always the best choice
• Whether Auto White Balance hurts your colors
• Why Lightroom’s Auto button is actually powerful
• How vibrance vs saturation really work
• Why Calibration might be the secret weapon you’ve been missing

These myths hold photographers back — especially beginners who are doing all the “right” things but still not getting clean, consistent images.
