Camera and Video Settings
1. From a Home screen, tap
Camera.
2. Tap
Settings to configure settings for
Camera. Available options vary depending on the
camera or recording mode used.
•
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.
•
Low-light detection: Take brighter and clearer
pictures without using the flash at night.
•
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.
•
Tap to take pics: Tap the image on the
preview screen to take pictures.
•
Selective focus: Make objects stand out from
the background. They must be within 1.5 feet
from you, and at least 3 times this distance
from the background.
•
Video size: Select a resolution. Use higher
resolution for higher quality. Higher resolution
videos take up more memory.
•
Recording mode: Select Normal, Limit for
email, or Fast motion mode.
•
Video stabilization: Activate anti-shake.
Anti-shake helps to keep the focus steady
when the camera is moving.
•
Audio zoom: While recording videos, zooming
in on an object amplifies sound from that area
and diminishes the surrounding sound.
•
Effects: Add special graphical effects.
