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.
• F ocus mode: Select a focus mode. Auto focus is camera-controlled. Macro is for very
close objects.
• 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.
• 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.
• V olume key: Set the device to use the Volume button to control the shutter or zoom
function.
• T imer: Use this for delayed-time shots.
• W hite 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.
