New Words~

The following are the words which I learn from the article, "Five Digital Camera Mistakes".

1. Gimmick(n) something that is not serious or of real value used to attract people’s attention or interest, especially to get them to buy something.

2. ambient (adj) relating to environmental conditions existing in the surrounding area.

3. unflattering (adj) making someone or something look less attractive or seem worse than usual.

4. aperture (n) a small and often narrow opening, especially one that allows light into a camera.

5. deer in the headlights (idiom) describes a subject that is lit too brightly with the background completely dark, or someone with a surprised or frightened look on his or her face.
