Picture size: Select a resolution. Use higher
resolution for higher quality. Higher resolution
pictures take up more memory.

Burst shots: Take a series of pictures of
moving subjects.
•
Auto night detection: Your device
automatically detects low light levels and
adjusts the camera accordingly.
•
Face detection: Detect faces in pictures for
tagging with the person's name.
•
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. Center-weighted measures
background light in the center of the scene.
Spot measures the light value at a specific
location. Matrix averages the entire scene.
