Printed	Page 178 2nd paragraph & Frequently Asked Questions box	There's a bit of confusion about which slider combinations you are recommending. There are a few different methods you mention, some which do not exist or are contradict each other: 1. ONLY the Levels control 2. Levels AND Exposure 3. "the dynamic duo of Exposure and Contrast" 4. Brightness and Contrast You state "If you've already adjusted your image using the Levels controls, then you probably won't need to play with Exposure and Contrast." Then in the FAQ box, you say "...I can create a well-balanced histogram with the Exposure and Levels sliders." That seems to contradict your first statement that you don't need to mess with the Exposure slider if using the Levels controls. Further on in the FAQ box, you say "...you may as well get into the habit of using the Exposure and Levels sliders." So which is it? Are you supposed to use the Levels sliders on their own or use both the Levels sliders and the Exposure sliders together? In the second sentence in the FAQ box you say "the Brightness and Contrast sliders do pretty much the same thing." The problem is, there is no Brightness slider in iPhoto '08. Though out the text it seems that you are saying you should choose between using only the Levels control or using the Exposure and Contrast sliders. The FAQ box seems to confuse things.	Anonymous
