Elements calculated from photometrically obtained light curves of eclipsing binaries are presented, and the narrow error boundaries are shown to be too optimistic. Interpretations of Kron's (1939, 1940) observations of the eclipsing binary YZ Cas are used as an example. It is demonstrated that speculations about color dependence of some parameters are premature, and it is recommended that a check be made on the influence of the uncertainties in the fixed input parameters.
