Tips for capturing better photos

To get better captures with the Camera app, here are some tips on what to do while
taking your shots.

Improving focus and sharpness

§

HTC One has autofocus, which works best on a subject that is not moving too
much. To change the focus, on the Viewfinder, tap the one you want to focus
on.

§

If the subject is moving, on the Viewfinder, press and hold the subject to lock
the focus.

§

You can manually adjust the sharpness of a photo by editing in Gallery. You can
also set the sharpness before taking a photo in the Camera settings.

Generally, it is better to sharpen a blurry image rather than to reduce the
sharpness in an image.
