7. Camera (Menu 4)

You can take photos and record
video clips with the built-in camera
and adjust its settings. The camera
lens is on the front of the phone. The
colour display and the mini display
on the front of the phone work as a
viewfinder. The camera produces
photos in JPEG format and video
clips in H.263 (SubQCIF) format.
After you take a picture or video, you
can attach it to a multimedia
message, send it with MMS, save it
as a wallpaper, save it in a
compatible PC using Nokia PC Suite
software, and upload it to a Web
address with the content image
uploader. When you attach a picture
to an entry in your list of contacts,
the picture is displayed when the
contact calls you.

If there is not enough memory to
take a new photo, delete old photos
or other files in the gallery.

The Nokia 6255 device support an
image capture resolution of 128 x
160 pixels on the Main display and
96 x 65 pixels on the Mini display.
The image resolutions in these
materials may appear different.
