Configuring the default storage location for photos and videos
Photos and videos are saved to your phone's internal storage by default. Set the default
storage location to the microSD card to free up storage space on your phone.
Open Camera and swipe left on the screen. Turn on the Priority save in SD card
switch to set the default storage location to the microSD card. This option will not be
available if there is no microSD card in your phone. If the microSD card is full, photos will
be saved to your phone's internal storage.
Adding an overlay
You can add a grid or spiral overlay to the viewfinder to help you compose your image.
Overlays may not be available in some shooting modes.
Open Camera. Swipe left on the screen, touch Assistive grid, and then select an
overlay to help you compose your image. Select Off to delete the reference lines.
You can choose from a 3 x 3 grid, phi grid, or spiral overlay. Use the 3 x 3 grid for general
shooting scenarios. The phi grid is similar to the 3 x 3 grid, but uses the golden ratio to
divide the viewfinder into distinct sections. Use the spiral grid for indoor photography or
portrait shots.
