Tips on taking good photographs

Picture quality

Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has
several picture quality modes. Use the highest setting
to make sure that the camera produces the best picture
quality available. Note however, that better picture
quality requires more storage space. For multimedia
message (MMS) and e-mail attachments it may be
necessary to use the smallest picture quality mode
optimized for MMS sending. You can define the quality
in the camera settings. See "Still image camera
settings," p. 82.
Background
Use a simple background. For portraits and other
pictures with people, avoid having your subject in front
10 seconds, or 20 seconds.
