Note that these errors are corrected in the downloadable examples.


[220]  The second one line code listing after "However, if frame rate is given
priority:";
There are two code listings on page 220. The second one is incorrect. The true value
in the parameter list should be false.

Instead of:

However, If the frame rate is given priority:
   user_cam.setMode(640, 480, 30, true);

The text should read:

However, If the frame rate is given priority:
   user_cam.setMode(640, 480, 30, false);
