Updated Corrections for "Science for the Curious Photographer"

Because of conflicting fonts, the equations in SCP had to be reentered by the publisher.  That process resulted in a few errors, and in spite of intensive proofreading a very small number of errors remain.  A typo has been found in equation 7.4 on page 29 where "=" and "+" were exchanged.  Also, on page 33 (second column, line 15 from bottom) the first "-" should be replaced with "=".  The updated list of corrections can be found here.
Comments:

Possible error on page 92.

Looks like the editor confused the symbol for minutes of arc with the symbol for feet. So the text at the top of the left column says 1/60° = 1ft.

I suspect it should be 1/60° = 1' of arc.
