To take two or more pictures in a sequence, select the
desired time interval. To capture pictures using the
selected time interval, press the capture key. To stop
taking pictures, select Cancel. The number of pictures
taken depends on the available memory.
After you take the pictures in the burst mode, they are
shown in a grid on the display. To view a picture, press
the scroll key to open it. If you used a time interval, only
the last taken picture is shown on the display. You can
view the other pictures in the Photos application.
You can also use the sequence mode with the self-timer.
To return to the sequence mode viewfinder, press the
capture key.
To switch off the sequence mode, in the active toolbar,
select Sequence mode > Single shot.
You in the picture—self-timer
The self-timer is available only in the main camera. Use
the self-timer to delay the capture so that you can include
yourself in the picture.
To set the self-timer delay, in the active toolbar, select
Self timer > 2 seconds, 10 seconds, or 20 seconds.
To activate the self-timer, select Activate. The device
beeps when the timer is running and the quadrangle
blinks just before the image capture. The camera takes
the picture after the selected delay elapses.
To switch off the self-timer, in the active toolbar, select
Self timer > Off.
Tip: In the active toolbar, select Self timer > 2
seconds to keep your hand steady when taking a
picture.
Tips on taking good photographs
Picture quality
Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has
several picture quality modes. Use the highest setting to
make sure that the camera produces the best picture
quality available. Note however, that better picture
quality requires more storage space. For multimedia
message (MMS) and e-mail attachments it may be
necessary to use the smallest picture quality mode
optimised for MMS sending. You can define the quality in
the camera settings.
See "Still image camera
settings", p. 67.
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.
