About the camera
Your Nokia N78 has two cameras. The main, high
resolution camera (up to 3.2 megapixels), is on the
back of the device. The secondary, lower resolution,
camera is on the front. You can use both cameras to
take still pictures and record videos.
Your device supports an image capture resolution of
2048x1536 pixels. The image resolution in this guide
may appear different.
The images and video clips are automatically saved in
the Photos application. See "Photos", p. 70. The
cameras produce .jpeg images. Video clips are
recorded in the MPEG-4 file format with the .mp4 file
extension, or in the 3GPP file format with the .3gp file
extension (sharing quality). See "Video
settings", p. 69.
To free memory for new images and video clips,
transfer files to a compatible PC using a compatible USB
data cable, for example, and remove the files from your
device. The device informs you when the memory is
full, and asks whether you want to change the memory
in use.
You can send images and video clips in a multimedia
message, as an e-mail attachment, or by using other
connection methods, such as Bluetooth connectivity or
a wireless LAN connection. You can also upload them
to a compatible online album. See "Share images and
videos online", p. 77.
