Panda Nail Art
I apologize for the horrible blurriness... I couldn't figure out how to make my phone's camera FOCUS, but my waitress at the sushi restaurant had a panda painted on her thumbnail.
She must be an agent. I opened my mouth to scream, but the inrush of air ignited the wasabi fumes and all I could do was take a hurried photo and weep. |

she is clearly an agent. it's a lucky thing you go out unacutelated.
(next time, press only halfway on the camera button and wait for it to focus, then take the picture. also check if you have a macro mode.) |

Most phone cameras are essentially pinhole cameras. Hence no focus.

mine is significantly more sophisticated than that. believe it or not, i chose the phone for the camera. among other features it has (true) auto-focus, several iso levels (including my personal favorite, "auto"), continuous mode (a whole lot of photos one after the other so you don't miss the action) and macro mode. also a flash, and "night mode". and plenty of gimmicks i never use. it's brilliant. 5 megapixels.
maybe i should be the infiltrated agent. at least i could take a better photo. |

Resistance is futile. You will be acutelated.
Wait, that was the last set of anthropomorphized avatarial pleonasms. |

Right...so...did anyone else, when they saw the topic heading, think that this "Panda Nail Art" involved a panda with a nail gun?

Yes, eBay is dangerous. I bought a broken Brownie camera there, just because it looked so cool and I *needed* a broken Brownie camera! |
