Taking Photos Using The Self-Timer; Adding The Geographic Location To Photos - Sony Ericsson Aspen Guía Del Usuario Ampliada

Taking photos using the self-timer

With the self-timer you can take a photo without holding the phone. Use it to take self-
portraits, or group photos where everyone can be in the photo. You can also use the self-
timer to avoid shaking the camera when taking photos.
To turn on the self-timer
1 Activate the camera.
2 If the still camera is not selected, tap
3 Tap Settings > Self timer
4 Tap ON.
5 To return to the viewfinder, tap Back.

Adding the geographic location to photos

You can add the approximate geographical location to photos when you take them. This
is called geotagging. When you upload the photos to an online service, or use them with a
map or location application, you can show friends and family where you were on a map,
or you can find your way back to the location another time. The geographical location is
determined using GPS technology. To use GPS technology make sure that you have
enabled the GPS receiver and that you have a clear view of the sky. This means that photos
you take indoors most likely will not be geotagged.
For more information on how to use GPS technology, see Uso del receptor GPS interno on
page 71.
To enable geotagging
1 Activate the camera.
2 If the still camera is not selected, tap
3 Tap Settings > GPS
4 Tap ON.
5 To return to the viewfinder, tap Back.
Tips on using the camera
Rule of thirds
Don't place your subject in the middle of the frame. By placing it a third of the way in, you
achieve a better result.
Hold it steady
Avoid blurry photos by holding the camera steady. Try to steady your hand by leaning it
against a solid object. You can also use the self-timer to make sure that the phone is steady
when the photo is taken.
Get closer
By getting as close as possible to your subject, you can fill the viewfinder with your subject.
Consider variety
Think about different angles, and move towards the object. Take some vertical photos. Try
different positions.
Use a plain background
A plain background helps highlight your subject.
Keep your lens clean
Mobile phones are used in all kinds of weather and places, and carried in pockets and bags.
This results in the camera lens becoming dirty and covered with fingerprints. Use a soft
cloth to clean the lens.
