Camera
Your Nokia N95 has two cameras, a high resolution camera 
on the back of the device (the main camera in landscape 
mode) and a lower resolution camera on the front (the 
secondary camera in portrait mode). You can use both 
cameras to take still pictures and record videos. 
Your device supports an image capture resolution of 
2592x1944 pixels using the main camera. The image 
resolution in this guide may appear different.
The images and video clips are automatically saved in the 
Images & vids.
 folder in 
Gallery
. The cameras produce 
.jpeg images. Video clips are recorded in the MPEG-4 file 
format with the .mp4 file extension, or in the 3GPP file 
format with the .3gp file extension (
sharing
 quality). See 
 Tip! To enter 
Gallery
 and view the pictures you have 
taken, press the review key 
 on the side of your 
device twice.
You can send images and video clips in a multimedia 
message, as an e-mail attachment, or by using Bluetooth 
connectivity, infrared, or wireless LAN connection. You can 
also upload them to a compatible online album. See ‘Share 
online’, p. 67.
