Tips on taking good photographs
Picture quality
Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has
three picture quality modes (Print 2M - Large, Print 1M
- Medium, or MMS 0.3M - Small). Use the High setting
to make sure 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 MMS 0.3M -
Small setting. You can define the quality in 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
Camera
47
these conditions cannot be met. Move the camera closer to
the object to take clearer portraits.
Camera
Depth
When shooting landscapes and sceneries, add depth to
your pictures by placing objects in the foreground. If the
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. Here 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.
• 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.

intellectual property, including copyrights. This device uses
various types of DRM software to access DRM-protected
content. With this device you can access content protected
with WMDRM 10, OMA DRM 1.0, and OMA DRM 2.0. If
certain DRM software fails to protect the content, content
owners may ask that such DRM software's ability to access
new DRM-protected content be revoked. Revocation may
also prevent renewal of such DRM-protected content
already in your device. Revocation of such DRM software
does not affect the use of content protected with other
types of DRM or the use of non-DRM-protected content.

restored with the content for you to be able to continue
the use of OMA DRM protected content after the device
memory is formatted. You may also need to restore the
activation keys in case the files on your device get
corrupted.
If your device has WMDRM protected content, both the
activation keys and the content will be lost if the device
memory is formatted. You may also lose the activation keys
and the content in case the files on your device get
corrupted. Losing the activation keys or the content may
limit your ability to use the same content on your device
again. For more information, contact your service provider.

Voice dialing
Your device supports enhanced voice commands.
Enhanced voice commands are not dependent on the
speaker’s voice, so the user does not record voice tags in
advance. Instead, the device creates a voice tag for the
entries in contacts, and compares the spoken voice tag to
it. The voice recognition in the device adapts to the main
user’s voice to recognize the voice commands better.
The voice tag for a contact is the name or nickname that is
saved on the contact card. To listen to the synthesized
voice tag, open a contact card, and select Options > Play
voice tag.
Make a call with a voice tag
Note: Using voice tags may be difficult in a noisy
environment or during an emergency, so you should not
rely solely upon voice dialing in all circumstances.
When you use voice dialing, the loudspeaker is in use. Hold
the device at a short distance away when you say the voice
tag.

recognized contact in the selected device language,
and displays the name and number. After a timeout of
2.5 seconds, the device dials the number.
If the recognized contact was not correct, select Next
to view a list of other matches or Quit to cancel voice
dialing.

Certificate management
Digital certificates do not guarantee safety; they are used
to verify the origin of software.
Settings
In the certificate management main view, you can see a
list of authority certificates that are stored in your device.
Press to see a list of personal certificates, if available.
Digital certificates should be used if you want to connect
to an online bank or another site or remote server for
actions that involve transferring confidential information.
They should also be used if you want to reduce the risk of
viruses or other malicious software and be sure of the
authenticity of software when downloading and installing
software.
Important: Even if the use of certificates makes the
risks involved in remote connections and software
installation considerably smaller, they must be used
correctly in order to benefit from increased security. The
existence of a certificate does not offer any protection by
itself; the certificate manager must contain correct,
authentic, or trusted certificates for increased security to
be available. Certificates have a restricted lifetime. If
“Expired certificate” or “Certificate not valid yet" is shown
even if the certificate should be valid, check that the
current date and time in your device are correct.
Before changing any certificate settings, you must make
sure that you really trust the owner of the certificate and
that the certificate really belongs to the listed owner.
View certificate details—check authenticity
You can only be sure of the correct identity of a server
when the signature and the period of validity of a server
certificate have been checked.
You are notified if the identity of the server is not
authentic or if you do not have the correct security
certificate in your device.
To check certificate details, scroll to a certificate, and
select Options > Certificate details. When you open
certificate details, the validity of the certificate is checked,
and one of the following notes may be displayed:
• Certificate not trusted—You have not set any
application to use the certificate. See ‘Change the trust
settings’, p. 98.
• Expired certificate—The period of validity has ended
for the selected certificate.
• Certificate not valid yet—The period of validity has
not yet begun for the selected certificate.
• Certificate corrupted—The certificate cannot be used.
Contact the certificate issuer.
