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.

•Focus mode: Select a focus mode. Auto focus is camera-controlled. Macro is for very close objects.

•Metering: Select a metering method. This determines how light values are calculated. Centre-weightedmeasures background light in the centre of the scene. Spot measures the light value at a specific location. Matrix averages the entire scene.

•ISO: Select an ISO value. This controls camera light sensitivity. It is measured in film- camera equivalents. Low values are for stationary or brightly-lit objects. Higher values are for fast-moving or poorly-lit objects.

•GPS 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.

•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.

•Exposure value: Change the exposure value. This determines how much light the camera’s sensor receives. For low-light situations, use a higher exposure.

•Guidelines: Display viewfinder guides to help composition when selecting subjects.

•Flash: Activate or deactivate the flash.
