Camera and Video

You can use the camera or camcorder to take and share pictures and videos. Your device comes with a 3.2 megapixel camera with an autofocus feature that lets you capture sharp pictures and videos.

You can take pictures and record videos using the Camera application. You can also view your pictures and videos with the Gallery application.

NOTE Pictures and videos are stored in a microSD card. Please make sure that the device has a microSD card inserted before taking pictures or recording video.

Be sure to clean the protective lens cover with a microﬁber cloth before taking pictures. A lens cover with smudges from ﬁngers can cause blurry pictures with a“halo” effect.
