No I would say that if you can't tell what the camera set up is then the best way to figure it out is go shoot and note what you are doing until you understand why. I don't recall in one class at RIT ever being asked to record that data to share. Its usually recorded for a list of other reasons. LIke EXACT reproduction in the case of emergency or to match a shot that has to be comped into another shot. I'm not anti it but I don't really thinks is all the beneficial to anyone

While this list tends to the more-experienced photographer, I'm sure there are some who *don't* have many decades of shooting already under their belt, and more experience gives you more to work with in figuring out such things.
What because the cant sort of figure it out based an the visual clues?
I see at as a mistake both to fetishize technical information, *and* to fetishize not discussing technical information.
