VGA camera
With the integrated VGA camera, the user can take
pictures and video clips and store them in the
phone memory. The user can send them as an
attachment in an e-mail or a picture message. The
picture can also be sent via bluetooth, infrared or
cable.
Using the camera or video
When the dedicated camera button is pressed,
camera or video is started, depending on what was
last used.
A large viewfinder is presented in the display and
QuickShare offers a minimal number of steps that
take you to the send options as follows:
3 steps for camera: start, capture and send.
4 steps for video: start, capture, stop and send.
The camera or video can also be started in the
menu.
Panorama pictures
The camera can create panorama pictures by
stitching together several different pictures into one
large picture. This is done with the help of a unique
image processing technique.
Using this feature is very user friendly. The user
simply takes a picture and then moves the camera
slightly sideways and then takes a new picture.
This can be repeated several times until the user
selects to save the panorama where all the different
pictures are stitched together.
Image formats
The camera is able to send pictures in the following
resolutions:
QQVGA (160 x 120 pixels)
QVGA (320 x 240 pixels)
VGA (640 x 480 pixels
Video format
Video clips can be recorded, played and sent using
the following codec:
H.263
More VGA camera features
The camera has full automatic exposure control
that selects the optimal exposure time needed to
get an excellent picture. When operating the
viewfinder, the camera adjusts the exposure time.
The lighting conditions found indoors and outdoors
may differ significantly. This may give rise to false
colours in photographs. To compensate for this,
the VGA camera is equipped with automatic white
balance. This feature automatically adjusts for
different lighting environments in order to produce
images with correct colours under most conditions.
The camera also has a photo light to improve
taking pictures in darker environments.
