Tips on taking good photographs
Picture quality
Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has
three picture quality modes (High, Normal, and Basic).
Use the High setting to ensure that the camera produces
the best picture quality available. Note however, that
better picture quality requires more storage space. For
MMS and e-mail attachments it may be necessary to use
the Normal or Basic setting. To define the quality in the
imaging mode in the camera, select Options > Settings.
Background
Use a simple background. For portraits and other pictures
with people, avoid having your subject in front of a
cluttered, complex background that may distract
attention from the subject. Move the camera, or the
subject, when these conditions cannot be met. Move the
camera closer to the object to take clearer portraits.
When shooting landscapes and sceneries, to add depth to
your pictures, place objects into the foreground. If the
Camera
foreground object is too close to the camera, it may be
blurred.
Lighting conditions
Changing the source, amount, and direction of light can
change photographs dramatically. The following are some
typical lighting conditions:
• Light source behind the subject. Avoid placing your
subject in front of a strong light source. If the light
source is behind the subject or visible in the display,
the resulting picture may have weak contrast, may be
too dark, and may contain unwanted light effects. You
can also use the flashlight to add more lighting to
shadows. See ‘Flash’, p. 26.
• Sidelit subject. Strong side light gives a dramatic
effect but may be too harsh, resulting in too much
contrast.
• Light source in front of the subject. Harsh sunlight
may cause the subjects to squint their eyes. The
contrast may also be too high.
• Optimal lighting is found in situations where there is
plenty of diffused, soft light available, for example, on
a bright, partially cloudy day or on a sunny day in the
shadow of trees.
Record videos
