The main camera includes features such as zoom, auto focus, image and video stabilizer to take crisp, and clear photos. There is also a video call camera, located above the screen, that activates during a video call. The built-in flash allows you to take photos in dark environments. It emits a burst of high-intensity light at just the right moment, allowing you to shoot well-lit photos indoors or in low-light conditions. For saving photos and video clips, the phone has an internal memory and a slot for a memory card. A memory card increases the memory capacity, and you can use it to transfer photos and video clips to compatible devices. You can set the camera to take photos in different sizes, ranging from VGA size up to 5 Megapixels, depending on your phone model. You can set the camera to take full-length video clips, or video clips limited in length, that are suitable for picture messages (MMS). The picture size and video clip length affect how many photos and video clips you can save in the phone memory or on the memory card. The maximum number of photos is also affected by the picture quality setting. Before taking a photo, you can change settings and add effects or frames. After taking a photo, you can use Photo fix to improve an under-exposed photo, use PhotoDJTM to add effects, frames or clipart objects to the photo. You can also tag your photos to categorize them. You can send photos or video clips in a picture message (MMS), as email message attachments or send them to a blog. You can also use a photo as a screen saver or wallpaper, or save it together with a contact so that the photo appears when that person calls. To use email and picture messaging (MMS), you must subscribe to these services. Check with your network operator. You can also exchange photos using the USB cable that comes with your phone, BluetoothTM wireless technology or infrared (if supported by your phone). 2 July 2007 Getting started Camera Photo fix You can use Photo fix to improve photos that you think can be better.

Normally our eyes compensate for lighting conditions with different colour temperatures. A digital camera needs to find a reference point which represents white. It will then calculate all the other colours based on this white point. For example, if a halogen light illuminates a white wall, the wall will appear yellow, while in fact it should be white. So if the camera knows the wall is supposed to be white, it will then compensate for all the other colours in the scene accordingly. Most digital cameras feature automatic white balance where the camera looks at the overall colour of the image and calculates the best white balance. However, these systems may not work properly if the scene is dominated by one colour or if there is no natural white. Available white balance settings: · · · · · Auto Daylight Cloudy Fluorescent Incandescent Before taking the actual photo, you can focus on an area in the scene which should be white or neutral grey, or on a plain white or grey background. The camera will then use this reference when taking the actual photo. Metering mode Available metering mode settings: · Normal ­ automatically determine a well-balanced exposure by measuring the light in the viewfinder. · Spot ­ adjust exposure to the centre of the picture, marked by a cross. Useful, for example, when you take a photo of a person against a light background. ISO for light sensititvity You can adjust the light sensitivity of the camera. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has defined standard scales for light sensitivity of photographic film. The light sensitivity affects the amount of noise, or grain, in a picture. High sensitivity gives more noise, which results in a grainier picture. · · · · Auto ­ the camera sets the light sensitivity. ISO 100 ­ low light sensitivity. ISO 200 ­ normal light sensitivity. ISO 400 ­ high light sensitivity. Picture quality You can select the quality you would like for your photo. · Normal picture quality will use less memory space than Fine picture quality.
