Hi
I am forever annoyed at what I call the "smartphone-camera-look" on everything. Most smartphone cameras are wide-angle and that has led most, or perhaps all selfies to be taken with a wide-angle look , thus with the wide-angle distortion of people's faces.. This has become almost a standard, so many YouTube videos are shot with wide-angles for what would , in the old days, require a medium-telephoto lens. Since bokehs now are soooo cool, they use very wide aperture , often very expensive, wide-angle lenses for the bokeh... The same bokehs could have been achieved more simply with a telephoto lens ..
An exemple
Same person ...
Need I say more? Am I, one of the few, this annoys? A lot ?
Peace
