Please Answerbank, remove the apostrophe from the instruction on your page. Its 'buffs' in the plural.

... thinking the apostrophe indicated an abbreviation of

"film buffoons"

[VivienneM]

Hear hear! The apostrophe used to denote plurals is very irritating.

"Buff" is not an abbreviation of anything. It is an informal noun meaning an expert on or devotee of a given subject. It originated in the US, where it meant "an enthusiastic fire-watcher", from the buff-coloured uniforms worn by volunteer firemen in New York City.

Even if it were an abbreviation, it would not warrant the apostrophe. The plural of photo is photos. QED.
