如不記下來怕會忘記的小趣事 (一) Little things that I don't wanna forget (1)

在天堂洞的步道上看到一對男女,蹲下來在昏暗的燈光下研究相機,我側身走過,瞄了一眼。

走了沒多久,再遇上。

男孩請我幫他們拍合照,我欣然答應,他們用的是我多年前用過的CANON300D,好不熟悉。

舉機準備拍攝,觀景器內顯示「FULL CF CARD」,於是我告訴他們"card is full",但他們英語不太好,可能不是很明白。

每到這個時侯,亮出場。

他先打開SD card槽,指示是card的問題,再打開LCD顯示屏,播放照片,然後指著數字"98/98",男孩應該是明白了,連聲多謝。

我覺得他也挺有意思的,應該是不知道為什麼相機不能拍,自己解決不了,想讓別人幫忙,索性請別人幫忙拍一張,自然水落石出!!

I pass a couple on the walkway of Paradise cave, they kneel down to fix their camera in the very dim lights.  

After a while, came across them again. 

The boy asked me to take a picture for them, yes, of course.  They are using Canon 300D, which I used to have years ago, very familiar touch and feel.

I pointed the camera and ready to shoot, the view finder has an alert "FULL CF CARD", so, I told them that the "card is full".  Apparently their English is not very good and cannot understand me. 

At this point, Mat plays his role.

He first opened the SD card slot to show them that the problem is with the card. 

Then, he turned on the LCD screen and played the photos.  He then pointed at the numbers "98/98".  Now the boy understood and thanked us for the help. 

I think this is a good tactics.  He could not figure out why the camera cannot shoot and needed help.  To get help, what is better than asking something to take a picture with his camera!! Nice try!

  2. 佢係呢D時侯,好能夠發揮作用。
    佢呢個專長叫做"相同英文水平溝通能力"
    我發現旅行時遇上英文不靈光的當地人,嘗試用英文和我們溝通,阿亮是聽得很懂而我是聽不懂的。
