Tips for capturing better photos
To get better captures with the Camera app, here are some tips on what to do while taking your
shots.
Improving focus and sharpness
§ HTC Desire 612 has autofocus, which works best on a subject that is not moving too much. To
change the focus, on the Viewfinder, tap the one you want to focus on.
§ If the subject is moving, on the Viewfinder, press and hold the subject to lock the focus.
§ You can manually adjust the sharpness of a photo by editing in Gallery. You can also set the
sharpness before taking a photo in the Camera settings.
Generally, it is better to sharpen a blurry image rather than to reduce the sharpness in an
image.
Taking well-lit photos
§ HTC Desire 612 automatically adjusts the focus and exposure. If the image appears
underexposed or that it appears dark on the Viewfinder, tap a part of the image that is in
shadow. Conversely, tap a well-lit object in the image if the image seems to be overexposed.
Focus on an object with a neutral tone for a balanced exposure. Keep in mind that tapping on
another object may shift the focus from your subject.
§ If you are using the default settings and the photo still appears too dark, switch to Night
scene, but place HTC Desire 612 on a level surface to keep it steady.
§ If there are parts of the image that are in shadows and others are in highlights, use HDR to
capture multiple shots of different exposures and combine them into one shot. Keep
HTC Desire 612 steady or place it on a level surface when using HDR.
§ When taking a panoramic photo, consider the whole scene and focus on an object that has a
neutral tone to help keep the exposure balanced in the composite image.
§ If your subject is lit from the back, use Backlight scene to highlight the foreground and keep
some details of the background.
