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.
• P hoto size / Video size: Select a resolution. Use higher resolution for higher quality. But it
takes up more memory.
• B urst shot: Take a series of photos of moving subjects.
• T ap to take pics: Tap the image on the preview screen to take photos.
• F ace detection: Set the device to recognise people's faces and help you take photos of
them.
• M etering modes: Select a metering method. This determines how light values are
calculated. Centre-weighted measures background light in the centre of the scene. Spot
measures the light value at a specific location. Matrix averages the entire scene.
• I SO: 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.
• V ideo stabilisation: Activate or deactivate anti-shake. Anti-shake helps focus when the
camera is moving.
• S mart stabilisation: Set the device to automatically detect darker conditions and adjust
the brightness of the photo without the flash.
• S ave as: Set the device to delete the original photo when taking photos with rich tone
mode.
• L ocation tag: Attach a GPS location tag to the photo. Activate this feature when taking
photos to create albums in Story Album.
• T o 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.
• Y our location may appear on your photos when you upload them to the Internet.
To avoid this, deactivate the GPS tag setting.
• R eview pics/videos: Set the device to show photos or videos after taking them.
