Using the camera and video
The camera and video can be started with the
camera button or from the Main menu. To many of
the camera settings there are shortcuts on the
keypad, thus eliminating the need for opening the
Settings menu and pointing at the screen.
Recording video clips
When the camera application is running, the user
can select video capture mode. Video clip capture
quality can be set to:
Video format
Video can be stored in the following formats:
• 3GPP for low quality video recordings to be
used in MMS messages.

Auto-exposure control
The camera has a full automatic exposure control
that selects the optimal exposure needed to get an
excellent picture.
Lighting adjustment
The camera has built-in compensation for bright
skies that automatically adjusts the brightness of
landscape pictures. This avoids the dark and dull
images that automatic cameras sometimes give in
difficult lighting situations. It is especially effective
for outdoor photography on grey and cloudy days.
Photo light
The camera has a high quality LED light to improve
picture quality in dark environments.
Business card scanner
It is possible to take a photo of a business card and
then use the Business Card Reader application to
scan the card. The scanned text can then be saved
as a contact.
The business card scanner is able to handle Latin
and Chinese (traditional and simplified) fonts, and
can handle business cards in the English, Chinese,
German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and
Swedish languages.
