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

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" on page 19.
• 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
