I picked up this magazine today (it's printed in the UK; not a jab, just
clarifying which magazine) and, after reading two articles; a review of the
*ist-D and a review of the Canon 300D; and skimming the rest, have come up
with one conclusion.

They need to hire a proof-reader!

Sheesh! they make comments that such and such camera doesn't show enough
detail, when they can't even print the name of a lens correctly.  In one
small side-bar they go on and on about the best portrait lens and keep
referring to it as a 28-135 when in fact they really mean -and show a
picture of- a 28-105.  They mislabeled the rear-view of an ist-D (labeling
the 4-way controller as the Av wheel); In the buyer's guide section they
show the ist-D but label its ratings as "Nikon D1-H" (clearly the rating are
for the ist-D as the D1-H rating (labeled properly) are different).   There
were numerous misspellings throughout the articles I read and their
step-by-step section included the same images for two different processes!
The list of mistakes is endless.

Camera manufacturers might not have the best quality control on the planet
but for a magazine with all these errors to point that out is ludicrous.
