Taking Pictures

Taking pictures with your phone’s built-in camera can be as simple as choosing a subject, pointing the lens, and tapping a button icon. When you take a picture, the Multi-point Auto-focus (AF) function operates automatically to allow you to capture a clear image, but you always have the option to set precise settings to acheive the precisely the photo you want.

To take a picture:

  1. Tap the Home Button > Camera .

    NOTE

    If necessary, tap the camera mode you want to use (Simple mode , Auto camera mode , or Manual camera mode ).

  2. Frame your subject on the screen.

    • The green squares indicate that the camera has focused.

    • Place two fingers on the screen and spread them apart to zoom in (a zoom bar indicates the zoom level) and pinch in to zoom back out.

  3. Tap the Capture button , if available. Otherwise, tap the subject to take the picture. Your picture will be automatically saved to the Gallery.

NOTE

The captured image retains the orientation in which it was taken. If you hold the phone both vertically and horizontally to take pictures, you'll need to rotate the phone to view full screen images in the Gallery app.

TIP!

While viewing a photo, you can tap the Menu icon , tap Rotate, then tap Rotate left (or Rotate right) to manually change its orientation.
