spd_dmn New Member Australia 35 Posts	Posted 06/25/2006 11:18 pm Found a 10c coin today, 1989. around the side/edge (width) whatever it is, it's all smooth where it is normally lined/rough. And it is a bit thicker than a regular 10c, it's also the exact same width so I ruled ot it being squished or something. Anyone heard of something like this? Report this Post to the Staff

I have taken a couple photos but they are s***, I can't get them focused they're all blurry. Any tips? I only have a 4mp digi cam without zoom. Report this Post to the Staff

If you look carefully on your digital camera, there should be a flower like symbol, which means it's a macro function. Depending on your type of camera, most macro functions are usually performed by pressing the button halfway, allowing it to focus before you take a full shot. Perhaps someone else can explain it better than I do.

I have tried the half press thing, it only has full or nothing though (if you understand) it has no half press. Stupid me left it on overnight and drained the $20 batteries, only had them 2 days.
