•
Clean the camera’s lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth.
•
Take pictures in bright lighting
conditions. Low-light images may be
grainy, due to the sensitivity of the
camera.
•
Hold the camera as still as possible. Try
supporting your picture-taking arm
against your body or a stationary object
(such as a wall).
•
Keep the subject of the pictures still.
Exposure time is longer with lower light
levels, so you may see a blur.
•
For best results, verify that you have the
brightest light source coming from
behind you, lighting the subject’s face.
Avoid taking indoor pictures with the
subject in front of a window or light.
•
Make sure the subject is at least 18
inches away from the camera to ensure
good focus.
Remember that when you synchronize,
your Camera images are stored in the
C:\Documents and
Settings\
My Documents folder on your hard drive
(see Viewing pictures and videos on your
computer).
The Camera preview image looks strange
Some third-party applications overwrite
your smartphone’s color settings with their
own 8-bit color settings. This can affect the
Camera Preview Mode. Delete third-party
applications one by one until the preview
image improves.
