Peter,
Sorry it took me so long to do this, but I did encounter the same behavior on
the matched perspective that you did. The tutorial is wrong in some fashion.
Here's why:
Camera and target absolute points can be entered, or dolly distances can be
entered, but not both. Entering one will override the other. The definition of
Dolly is to "pull back" or "push forward" the camera. Obviously this changes
it's position, and consequently the numbers for absolute position will change
as well.
I think, if you type in all the numbers EXCEPT the one for dolly, you will get
the image that they want you to wind up with.
I will forward this to the Publications dept. to see what was supposed to
happen.
