thanks mon ami!
I did use the auto, too :)
but I was trying everything out on the round thing on it and used the icon that looks like a guy running hahah I haven't read that manual yet obviously, it's been with me for a long time but I was lazy and busy going out visiting friends on a daily basis so I let the unboxing sit for quite some time

I tried with my phones but they always turn out blurry
phones seem nearsighted hahahah

no need to apologize about the sand ;)
thanks for wishing me luck!
