1. You are working for Canon Marketing, Inc. as a sales agent. An old man is interested in purchasing a camera
for his 18-year old grandson. The problem is he does not know which camera would be perfect for him. His
grandson has just begun learning about photography. You are explaining to him about the following:
a. differences between a point and shoot camera, and a Digital SLR
b. the features of Canon Power shot SD850 IS Digital ELPH
Sample answer:
There are several differences between a normal point and shoot camera and a Digital SLR in terms of: (1) auto-focus and auto-exposure, (2)
quality of images and (3) photographic control. If you would like to carry your camera anytime and anywhere, then you should go for a point
and shoot camera. However, if you want to have more artistic and creative control over your photos then a Digital SLR would be perfect for you.
Since your grandson has just begun, learning about photography, then a point and shoot camera is more suitable for him. I suggest that you
give him a Canon Powershot SD850 IS Digital ELPH. It has 8.0-megapixel sensor, 4x optical zoom with 4x digital zoom for 16x total zoom and
a 2.5-inch LCD with scratch resistant, anti-reflection coating.
2. You got an incentive for being the top sales agent for the month of September. As a reward for your hard
work, you would like to buy a new gadget. You love playing video games, watching movies and listening to
music. You are uncertain which one to purchase between an iPod touch and a Sony PSP. To help you decide,
you ask the sales agent about:
a. the features of iPod touch
b. the features of Sony PSP
c. price of both products
Sample answer:
I am having trouble deciding which one to purchase between an iPod touch and a Sony PSP. I love watching movies, playing video games and
listening to music. I hope you can help me decide which product to buy. Can you tell me about the features of both the iPod touch and the Sony
PSP? I would also like to know the price of both products. I am willing to spend $250 for a new gadget.
