This question cannot be answered in its current form, because critical information is missing.

Following from the previous related question, Migrate posts in?, and from the site proposal, we have decided to be selective about which questions, or at categories of questions, to import from Photo-SE.
So, let's start figuring out what to import. I suggest let's figure out types of posts (by subject, tag, etc?). I anticipate that there are several "singleton", important posts that might not fit a category. In those cases, let's just identify them as the singletons, and perhaps start to list them.
I'm not sure the Q&A format will work well to list the several tens or hundreds of posts, but's let's start here and see how it goes.
Edit (several months later):
In retrospect, I'm glad questions weren't migrated in from Photo-SE. Instead, perhaps lists in the answers below could be examples of the types of questions we might want to consider writing for FAQs. Just a suggestion.
