Timing for this book was great. I am giving my mom my high speed canon digital camera for Christmas. So now I can get her an instruction manual to go with it.
For those who missed it, you didn't miss anything. The entire book reads like a bad translation. For example...
"If you are planning on using filters for your polarizer, make sure that you use the polarizing filter, as the polarizer can help you decrease reflections on your photos".
"Aperture is placed between the rear and front elements of your camera lens. So, the metal blades, which makes the diaphragm of your camera is actually aperture".
"You need to make your shutter speed lower than usual, for about two levels lower. Keep your finger on the shutter in order to lock the focus, then when you are ready, let it go and shoot".
"The aperture readout will show you the actual aperture that is currently set. You can change the aperture if it is not properly set".
"We change the aperture by increasing and reducing the size of the blends as we choose whether the lenses will be wide open or reduced. You can choose large or small aperture, and modern lenses even offer a choice of adjusting the aperture size by stopping the blades in the middle of the capturing. If you choose large aperture, you will get large amount of unfocused light and if you decide to go for small aperture, you will get a smaller light field, focused in the range of your aperture size".
