Camera
Here are some tips for taking good pictures with the built-in camera:
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, position the brightest light source 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 (.5 meters) away from the camera to ensure 
good focus.
My Camera Won’t Take Pictures
If your company uses Microsoft System Center Mobile Device Manager, contact your system 
administrator to find out whether the camera features are disabled on your smartphone.
The Camera Preview Image Looks Strange
Some third-party applications overwrite the color settings of your Treo Pro smartphone 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.
