Adjust Camera Settings
On the Camera setting screen, you can adjust a variety of camera settings, modes, and specifications
to suit your needs.
Capture smiles automatically: From Settings, enable Capture smiles. The camera will now take a
picture automatically when it detects a smile in the viewfinder.
Mute photography: From the Settings screen, enable Mute.
Use Assistive Grid to Compose Your Photos
Ever get annoyed that your photos turn out looking skewed or the subject always seems to be off-
center? You can use your camera's assistive grid feature to help you line up the perfect shot.
To select an assistive grid, open Camera and touch to enter Settings. Then touch Assistive
grid and select the type of grid or lines you want to use.
Rule of thirds composition method: Use either Grid or Phi grid. The four intersection points in the
grid are the focus areas of the picture. Place the subject of your photo on one of the intersection
points to achieve a good composition.
