Camera mode affects image size and orientation
 Tip! Try out the 
different Camera modes to 
see how they affect the 
picture taken.
With the different Camera modes, you can affect the size and orientation of the picture 
to be taken. See Fig. 
. When you are taking a picture, press 
 or 
 to change 
between the different modes. Choose:
Standard
 when you want to take normal landscape pictures, 
Portrait
 when you want to take a smaller icon-sized, vertical picture, which can be 
added to a contact card, or
Night
 when the lighting is dim and the Camera needs a longer exposure time for the 
picture to be of good quality. Note that, in dim conditions, any movement while 
taking a picture may cause it to get blurred. The image size and orientation is the 
same for 
Standard
 and 
Night
.
Glossary: 
Resolution - A measure for 
the sharpness and clarity 
of an image. Resolution 
refers to the number of 
dots (pixels) in an image or 
a display. The more pixels 
there are, the more 
detailed the picture is. 
Resolution is usually 
measured in pixels, for 
example, 640x480=300 
kilopixels (kpix)=0.3 
megapixels (Mpix).
Fig. 2 Standard, Portrait, and Night modes
• When you are taking a picture in Standard or Night mode, the viewfinder resolution 
is 160x120 pixels and 80x96 for Portrait mode. 
• The images taken in Standard or Night mode are saved in 640x480 pixel (VGA) format 
and those taken in Portrait mode are saved in 80x96 pixel format.
