Camera (Menu 4)

7. Camera (Menu 4)

You can take photos and record video clips with the built-in camera
and adjust its settings. The camera lens is on the front of the phone. The color
display and the mini display on the front of the phone work as a viewfinder. The
camera produces photos in JPEG format and video clips in H.263 (SubQCIF) format.
After you take a picture or video, you can attach it to a multimedia message, send it
with MMS, save it as a wallpaper, save it in a compatible PC using Nokia PC Suite
software, and upload it to a Web address with the content image uploader. When
you attach a picture to an entry in your list of contacts, the picture is displayed
when the contact calls you.

If there is not enough memory to take a new photo, delete old photos or other files
in the gallery.

The Nokia 6255, Nokia 6255i, Nokia 6256, and Nokia 6256i devices support an
image capture resolution of 128 x 160 pixels on the Main display and 96 x 65 pixels
on the Mini display. The image resolutions in these materials may appear different.
