camera functionality. Your 2 megapixel camera produces photos
in JPEG format.
Important!: Do not take photos of people without their permission.
Do not take photos in places where cameras are not allowed.
Do not take photos in places where you may interfere with
another person’s privacy.
Using the Camera
Taking Photos
Taking pictures with your device’s built-in camera is as simple as
choosing a subject, pointing the camera, then pressing the
camera key.
Note: When taking a photo in direct sunlight or in bright conditions, shadows
may appear on the photo.
1. In Idle mode, press the Camera key to activate the
camera mode.
2. Using the phone’s main display screen as a viewfinder,
adjust the image by aiming the camera at the subject.
3. Press the Camera key until the shutter sounds. (The
picture will automatically be stored within your designated
storage location. If no microSD is installed, all pictures will
be stored on the Phone.) For more information, refer to
“Camera and Camcorder Options” on page 97.
Note: The number of JPEG pictures remaining on the selected media appears
in the upper-right of the screen. This is an approximate number of total
pictures which can be taken at the current image size.
