Changing Camera settings
Camera has automatic settings that you can use to take quick point-and-shoot
photographs and videos. But Camera also offers a number of ways to control your
exposures, including controlling the focus, turning the flash on and off, and adjusting
the white balance. You can even shoot negatives and other special effects.
When in Video mode, Camera includes settings for controlling picture and video
quality and video length, whether to store the location where you take your pictures,
and so on.
The settings in Camera depend on the features supported by your phone.
