10.1 About Camera and Album
With the Camera application, you can use your T-Mobile MDA III's camera to snap new
photos, or shoot video clips with accompanying audio. The companion program, Album ,
provides powerful features to manage, organize, and manipulate image, video, and audio
files that you have captured or obtained from other sources (from received E-mail, a Stor-
age Card, infrared beaming, or sychronized from PC, Smartphone, etc.).
In
Camera , the Photo capture mode allows you to capture standard still images. In Picture
Theme mode, you can place your captured images into attractive frames (templates). Or,
switch to the Video capture mode and capture “live” video streams (with audio, if desired),
then share them with others or play them on your own device, desktop PC, or Smartphone
whenever you want. You can even send the captured files via E-mail or MMS. Just “snap
and send” a newly-captured image/video, or “select and send” an existing one. The MMS
Video capture mode is intended especially for capturing video clips that will be compatible
for sending immediately via MMS.
In
Album , you can organize your image, video, and audio files into albums and slide
shows. You can browse/play them in a variety of view modes, and manipulate them (add
text or audio annotation, rename, view properties, etc.).
