Hi All,
Not had my phone long. With the pics i've taken so far i have to say i'm a little disappointed. Even in a well lit room from 3ft i cannot clearly make out the writing on a book cover which is in large font. Whats the best settings for the camera? Do i leave the macro on? Any help appreciated

make sure you only use macro mode for objects at around 20cm, any other distance and you need to take it off.

Ok,
So i take the macro off for normal range. Also is the video recorder only capable of 14 secs of recording?
thanks for the reply

yeah when your taking shots of anything more than about 30cm then it defo neds to be off.

to make it last longer than 14 seconds open the lense cover, go to video (flick joystick down) and press settings. go along one where it says shoot mode and select high quality video. then it lasts aslong as you have memory available.
