Sony Ericsson P990i Betriebsanweisung

Your phone has a digital camera that also works as a 
video clip recorder. You can take pictures, record video 
clips, store them on a Memory Stick or in phone 
memory, view them and send them directly as an MMS 
message. You can also send pictures and clips using 
Send as, see Send as on page 24.
Exposure control is automatic, with manual 
compensation so that you can adjust picture brightness.
You can set the camera to focus automatically. A macro 
mode setting allows you to take extreme close-ups.
The zoom level is adjustable from 100 to 250 percent.
You can save pictures and clips in different frame sizes, 
(pixel resolutions). This allows you to choose the quality 
of a picture or clip in relation to its use. The number of 
pictures and clips that you can save on the Memory Stick 
or in the phone will vary with the frame sizes of your 
pictures and clips.
The built-in photo light is useful when taking still 
pictures in poor lighting conditions. A Night Mode 
setting is also available.

You can take pictures with overlay frames, with filter 
effects such as sepia toning, or black and white pictures 
by changing the camera settings.
