What happens if you stick A4 size sheet on a pinhole camera instead of butter paper or tissue paper?

It depends what density of A4 paper you were using.

At above 60 gsm you would see not very much. However at 60 gsm A4 paper is getting thin enough (like tissue paper) to be slightly transparent and so allow an image possibly to be seen. Tissue paper is used as it is thin enough to be transparent enough to see the projected image.

If you were to make your pin hole camera a camera obscura - a box big enough for you to physically get inside - you could use a piece of ordinary 80gsm A4 paper onto which to project the image from the pin hole and view it from the same side as the pin hole: in this case the light does not need to penetrate the paper "screen" to be viewed and so thicker, non-transparent paper can be used. The camera obscura was used in this way with the occupant tracing the image projected onto their paper to create a good drawing of the scene they wanted to draw.

How many pictures fits on a 16 MB picture card?

The capacity of a card indicates the maximum amount of data that can be stored (less some space for the card's own use).

Megapixel (MP) count refers to the maximum resolution of the camera's sensor -- its ability to record detail. The number of images that can be recorded on a card of a given size is only indirectly related to the capacity of the card, which is measured in Kilobytes (KB) or Megabytes (MB), not MP. That will vary according to the image itself, and to the camera's settings.

For example: My Pentax K10D, with a 10.1 MP sensor and using a 4 GB card, will record approximately 821 images at the highest resolution (10 MP) and a "Fine" resolution setting. The same camera, with the same sensor and same card, will record 10,000-plus images at the lowest resolution (2 MP) and the "Low" resolution setting. Practically all cameras have this ability to change the resolution settings, and thus the sizes of the image files that are stored on the card.

So, you can see that it is only possible to answer your question in very general terms: The higher the capacity of the card, the more images you can store at whatever camera settings. And, as you can see above, even at the highest settings with a high MP count, you can take a lot of pictures!

One thing to think about: storage cards can and do fail. It is better to have two 1 GB cards than one 2 GB card, unless you plan to shoot a whole lot of video. That way if one fails, you can keep shooting and worry about retrieving the images off the other card later.

Is it ok to have more milli amps than necessary I have a camera battery that is 3.7V and 680 mAh Can I use a battery that is 3.7V and 800 mAh?

Probably. Put simply, the mAh rating is the size of the proverbial 'gas tank' the battery provides for your device. The larger mAh just means a larger 'gas tank'.

To be more precise: the unit mAh stands for milliamp-hours; it indicates that a completely charged battery contains enough power to discharge that amount of current for one hour. For example a 680mAh battery theoretically contains enough power to produce 680mA of current for one hour (though in reality, it might not be possible to discharge it that quickly) or 68mA of current for ten hours.

If caught shoplifting and they later research cameras and see you have shoplifted many other times can those previous shopliftings be combined to 1 offense or can they charge you for previous acts?

Law are different per state and countries. (see Canada at bottom)

PLUS, different stores and different police officers handle a case like this differently. Basically the police can "charge" you on a complaint from, for whatever a store employee is willing to sign.

When a person is caught, they have them "red handed", but even video tapes normally don't have the "complete crimes" on them, just parts of it. So, they would try to get you to admit to it somehow, if they tell you they have you on tape other days stealing, and you say "Yes Sorry Can I get charged with them too?" Your confession would make their case solid. And they would be able to charge you for multiple cases with different dates and amounts, OR they could just make it one charge with the total dollar amount.

With this question, with the "they later researched and found"

I would say, when you were arrested, the cop did the crime report and/or complaint form, and turned it in for your conviction. Then the store at a later date, called the cop back, and said they found you on tape earlier doing the same thing.

I would think the cop would maybe give the store a choice of :

"to sign another separate charge" OR "just forget about it, you already got him, your not going to recover the items, and he is already not allowed back in the store again, and if the tape doesn't have the complete crime and he doesn't admit to it, it would be worthless anyways.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

YES. But the usual method is to lay a theft charge for the current episode, and upon conviction, ask the court for a order to ban you from that store for a period of years, and if you enter the store again, they will lay charges for the previous events. You need to get it thru your head that this is STEALING and it will get you jail time and a life long criminal record, too.
