Camera

Camera settings

On the Apps screen, tap 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.

•Picture size: Select a resolution. Use higher resolution for higher quality. But it takes up more memory.

•Picture stabilisation: Set the device to automatically detect darker conditions and adjust the brightness of the photo without the flash.

This option is not available when you record videos.

•Face detection: Set the device to recognise people’s faces and help you take photos of them.

•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.

•Metering modes: 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.

•Tap to take pics: Tap the image on the preview screen to take photos.

•Save as: Set the device to save both the rich tone photo and original photo, or only the rich tone photo.

•Video size: Select a resolution. Use higher resolution for higher quality. But it takes up more memory.

•Recording mode: Change the recording mode.

•Effects: Select a filter effect to use when taking photos or recording videos.
