Hi,

I'd like clarification of a paragraph in the PR book (3rd edition), please!

At the bottom of page 47 it says:

"When in Photofocus, the print on the page is probably blurred. That is okay, because to see the blip, you must place your focal plane at some distance away. To have clarity up close, you will need to relax your eyes and have the focal plane move in."

OK - "When in Photofocus, the print on the page is probably blurred". Fine, I get the blip page and the text is out of focus. My eyes are still effectively focussed on the wall, which I used to diverge my eyes and then I glance down to the book.

However, "To have clarity up close, you will need to relax your eyes and have the focal plane move in." So, do we have to move "the focal plane in"?

Do you see what my question is? I find the quoted paragraph ambiguous and confusing! The first sentence says Photofocus should be blurred. The last paragraph says it shouldn't be blurred and the focal plane should be moved.

Can people please clarify what is meant to happen?

Many thanks,

AJ
