Configuring settings for Camera
Tap to configure settings for Camera. Not all of the following options are available in both
still camera and video camera modes. The available options vary depending on the mode
used.
•
Photo size
/
Video size
: Select a resolution. Use higher resolution for higher quality. But it
takes up more memory.
•
Metering modes
: Select a metering method. This determines how light values are
calculated.
Centre-weighted
measures background light in the centre of the scene.
Spot
measures the light value at a specific location.
Matrix
averages the entire scene.
•
Location tag
: Attach a GPS location tag to the photo.
•
To improve GPS signals, avoid shooting in locations where the signal may be
obstructed, such as between buildings or in low-lying areas, or in poor weather
conditions.
•
Your location may appear on your photos when you upload them to the Internet.
To avoid this, deactivate the GPS tag setting.
•
Review pics/videos
: Set to show photos or videos after taking them.
•
Volume key
: Set the device to use the Volume button to control the shutter or zoom
function.
•
Timer
: Use this for delayed-time shots.
•
White balance
: Select an appropriate white balance, so images have a true-to-life colour
range. The settings are designed for specific lighting situations. These settings are similar
to the heat range for white-balance exposure in professional cameras.
•
Brightness
: Change the brightness.
