There are some parts of the Sinaiticus which are in better shape than others; the ink has worn or faded more in some places than others.
The folio (page) containing Acts 1:22 is not too bad. Here is a screenshot of Acts 1:22 from the Codex Sinaiticus site. I have changed the brightness and contrast slightly to make it a bit more readable:
The first word of Acts 1:22 is ἀρξάμενος, which you can see starting about two-thirds of the way through the top line. The last three letters of ἀρξάμενος carry over to the second line - NOC. The 'C' is a lunate sigma.
Try to find these words:
(1) βαπτίσματος
(2) μάρτυρα
Remember that all-caps manuscripts typically do not include accent marks. I'll repost the snippet with the locations tomorrow.
