Why can the wavelength and frequency of a photon be described only for classical electromagnetics, and not photons? Is this Heisenberg's?

In quantum mechanics, we can and do talk about a photon's wavelength, \( \lambda \) and frequency \( f \). The remain related by \[ \lambda f = c \] where \( c \) is the speed of light. So I don't understand the concern.
I don't understand the concern either; I was just phrasing exactly as the textbook did. In context of decoherence and entanglement, a photon's wavelength and frequency couldn't be described.
Ok, then this is very special situation and off the top of my head I can't explain it, but it certainly sounds plausible.
