Clean the camera’s lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth.

Take pictures in bright lighting
conditions. Low-light images may be
grainy, due to the sensitivity of the
camera.

Hold the camera as still as possible. Try
supporting your picture-taking arm
against your body or a stationary object
(such as a wall).

Keep the subject of the pictures still.
Exposure time is longer with lower light
levels, so you may see a blur.

For best results, verify that you have the
brightest light source coming from
behind you, lighting the subject’s face.
Avoid taking indoor pictures with the
subject in front of a window or light.

Make sure the subject is at least 18
inches away from the camera to ensure
good focus.

Remember that when you synchronize,
your Camera images are stored in the
C:\Documents and
Settings\<Username>\My Documents\Treo
My Documents folder on your hard drive

(see Viewing pictures and videos on your
computer).

The Camera preview image looks strange

Some third-party applications overwrite
your smartphone’s color settings with their
own 8-bit color settings. This can affect the
Camera Preview Mode. Delete third-party
applications one by one until the preview
image improves.
