You can adjust the camera settings, for example to match the environment with different scene modes – no matter whether you are taking a picture of your favourite scenery or a portrait of your friend. Learn how here!


Image settings

To adjust the settings, tap the Settings icon extended on the screen. Select the setting you want to adjust from the list by tapping it. When in camera mode, you can adjust:

    • Scene mode: select among portrait, landscape, close-up, sport or night. Tip! Tap the scene mode on the screen lightly and let the pop-up tell you what the scene is about.
    • Color tone: you can select, for instance, normal, sepia or black & white
    • Contrast
    • White balance: base your selection on lighting; sunny, cloudy, fluorescent or incandescent
    • Sharpness
    • Exposure
    • Light sensitivity

From the same list you can select:

    • Image mode/Video mode
    • Self-timer: select the delay until the camera captures the picture. You can choose between 2 seconds, 10 seconds and 20 seconds.Tap the selection and select Activate. From the left corner you can see the time left until the camera takes the picture.
    • Sequence: you can choose whether you want to take single shots or a sequence. Once a sequence is activated, the camera takes up to 18 pictures straight after pressing the capture key. If you want to take less than that, select Stop once you are ready.
