Tips on taking good photographs By turning the swing axis camera, capturing the views in demanding situations is easier. You can turn the camera unit clockwise or counterclockwise. See 'Camera mode', p. 14. Picture quality Use the appropriate picture quality. The camera has three picture quality modes (High 2M - Print, Med. 0.5M - Email, and Low 0.3M - MMS). Use the High 2M - Print 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 the Med. 0.5M Email or Low 0.3M - MMS setting. To define the quality in the image 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 these conditions cannot be met. Move the camera closer to the object to take clearer portraits. Depth When shooting landscapes and sceneries, add depth to your pictures by placing objects into the foreground. Note however, that if the foreground object is too close to camera, it may be blurred. 49 Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.

When shooting landscapes and sceneries, add depth to
your pictures by placing objects into the foreground. Note
however, that if the foreground object is too close to
camera, it may be blurred.
