Using a Camera
Ingrid: I don’t mind lending you my Camera for the trip, but first, let me show you how to use it.
Deng: No need to do that. I took a Photography class in high school, and I pretty much know all there is to know about taking pictures.
Ingrid: Wasn’t that a long time ago? This is a Digital camera with some new features. For instance, this camera has Auto zoom, Image stabilization, and a Memory card.
Deng: It can’t be that different from the camera I used 15 years ago. This looks like a Point-and-shoot. You look through the Viewer and push the button, right?
Ingrid: Well, not quite. You can adjust the Flash and Shutter speed, see? You can also attach a Lens for Wide-angle or Close-up shots. You can even review your photos, saving the ones you like or Deleting the ones you don’t want anymore.
Deng: Okay, I got it. By the way you’re talking, you’d think I was Born yesterday. Just show me where To load the Film!
