Tips on using the camera

Rule of thirds

Don’t place your subject in the middle of the frame. By placing it a third of the way in, you

achieve a better result.

Hold it steady

Avoid blurry photos by holding the camera steady. Try to steady your hand by leaning it

against a solid object. You can also use the self-timer to make sure that the phone is steady

when the photo is taken.

Get closer

By getting as close as possible to your subject, you can avoid relying on the zoom. Try to

fill the viewfinder with your subject.

Stay within the flash range

Photos taken beyond the maximum flash range will be too dark. The maximum flash range

is about four steps from the subject.

Consider variety

Think about different angles, and move towards the object. Take some vertical photos. Try

different positions.

Use a plain background

A plain background helps highlight your subject.

Keep your lens clean

Mobile phones are used in all kinds of weather and places, and carried in pockets and bags.

This results in the camera lens becoming dirty and covered with fingerprints. Use a soft

cloth to clean the lens.

Using the video camera

To record a video

Select

Camera

Press the navigation key left or right to scroll to .

Press the centre selection key to start recording.

To stop recording, press the centre selection key. The video is saved automatically.

To return to the viewfinder and to record another video, press
