Camera

The Camera application takes pictures at Small picture size (160x120 pixels) and Large picture size (640x480 pixels, or .3 megapixel). Here are some tips for taking good pictures with the built-in camera:

Clean the camera’s lens with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Take pictures in bright lighting conditions. Low-light images may be grainy, due to the sensitivity of the camera.

Hold the camera as still as possible. You may want to support your picture- taking arm up against your body or a stationary object (such as a wall).

Keep the subject of the pictures still. Exposure time is longer with lower light levels, so you may see a blur.

For best results, verify that you have the brightest light source coming from behind you, lighting the subject’s face. Don’t take indoor pictures with the subject in front of a window or light.

Make sure the subject is at least 18 inches away from the camera to ensure good focus.

Remember, when you synchronize, your Camera images are stored in the

Treo Pictures folder on your hard drive (see page 62).
