Camera

Use an Assistive Grid to Compose Y

our Photos

Avoid skewed and off-center photos. Use your camera's assistive grid feature to help you line up the

perfect shot.

Open

Camera, touch to enter the Settings screen, and enable

Assistive grid. Grid lines will

now appear when you take photos. The four intersecting points on the grid are the focus areas of the

picture. Place the subject of your photo on one of the intersecting points to achieve a good

composition.

Use Portrait Mode to Take Stunning Portraits

Go to Camera > Portr

ait, select one of the effects, then touch

to take a portrait.

l Blurred effect

: Touch the

icon in the viewnder and select a blurred effect.

A light source (such as neon light or street light) in a relatively well-lit background will

contribute to a better blurred effect. T

aking a photo from afar will reduce the stage lighting

effect.
