Mike: It's about time you got a new digital camera, instead of the clunky one you've been using for years. Yeah, I don't mind helping you figure out how it works. How about you take a picture of me first? I want to see how good your camera is. Here, I'll adjust the flash for you so that it's not too bright.

Amanda: Are you ready? I'm going to zoom in for a close-up. Say cheese, Mike! Here, have a look－tell me what you think of the winning combination of my photography skills and brand-new camera. I've already taken a few snapshots of my parents and friends with it.

Mike: With this model, you won't have to charge the batteries for too long. Another advantage is that it's slim, so it won't take up too much space in your bag. I'm impressed－the quality of the images is amazing. I can't say the same about your photography skills, though!
