You can take photos and record video clips with the built-in camera, and adjust
its settings. The camera lens is on the back of the phone, and the color display
of the phone works as a viewfinder. The camera produces photos in JPEG format
and video clips in H.263 (SubQCIF) format. After you have taken a picture or
video, you can attach it to a multimedia message, and send it with MMS, save
it as wallpaper in the start screen, 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 your contact calls you.
If there is not enough memory to take a new photo, free some by deleting old
photos or other files in the gallery.
