    I am trying to upload pictures of a BF'er's CAB 22 but can't do so. It has a crack??? or hairline crack or (I don't know what it is) right below the T-Joint. The crack runs almost perpendicular to the length of shaft and goes around half the circumference of the shaft. Can someone help me with uploading pictures under managing file attachments? Thanks!

    Close UP Pictures

    How do I take close up pictures without the fuzziness?

    Is it possible just a paint crack? Does it plays differently? Look like it is just at the end of t-joint.

    The shaft feels intact and stiff but I am not sure if it is safe to use.

    OOT: In some cameras, well at least Kodak and Sony, there is close-up mode so we can take picture of objects closely.

    About the racket, I hope it is just a paint crack. I don't think the very stiff shaft will break easily. Beside that, I have never seen a racket breaks in the shaft (although it may happen though).

    Usually, the macro mode is a flower-like button

    So, what do you want to know?

    Is it,

    1) how to take digital pictures?

    or

    2) if the paint crack makes a difference to playing badminton?

    For 2), only a psychological difference;)

    I got one on a cab20. It's worse than the picture you show (judging from the quality of the pics you've shown so far)

    there is a minimum focus distance for your camera, putting it too close your camera won't focus

    Both :D

    Well, your CAB 20 CN can take loads of crap :). But the owner of this CAB 22 wants others' opinions.

    I reckon he should keep playing with it till it looks like it's going to fall off. Use it for singles only though;)
