Still camera settings overview
Scene recognition
Normal
Picture effect
Apply effects to photos.
Scene selection
Use a pre-programmed scene type to quickly set the camera for common situations.
Sweep Panorama
Use this setting to take wide-angle, panoramic photos. Just press the camera key and move the
camera steadily from one side to the other.
Front camera
Select the front camera if you want to take self-portrait photos.
Resolution
Choose between several picture sizes and aspect ratios before taking a photo. A
photo with a higher resolution requires more memory.
Flash
Use the flash to take photos when lighting conditions are poor or when there is a
backlight.
Auto
The camera automatically determines if the lighting conditions require the use of a flash.
Fill flash
Use this setting when the background is brighter than the subject. This removes unwanted dark
shadows.
Off
The flash is turned off. Sometimes photo quality can be better without the flash, even if lighting
conditions are poor. Taking a good photo without using the flash requires a steady hand. Use the
self-timer to avoid blurred photos.
Red-eye reduction
Reduces the red colour of eyes when taking a photo.
Self-timer
With the self-timer you can take a photo without holding the device. Use this function
to take self-portraits, or group photos where everyone can be in the photo. You can
also use the self-timer to avoid shaking the camera when taking photos.

The photo is taken as soon as you tap the camera screen.
