Taking photos and recording videos
Your phone camera is equipped with the highly sensitive Exmor R™ sensor, which helps
you capture sharp photos and videos even in low lighting conditions. With your phone
camera, you can take regular 2D photos or you can shoot 3D photos in 3D Sweep
Panorama mode and Sweep Multi Angle mode. Send your photos and videos to friends
as multimedia messages, or upload them to a web service. Your phone also has a front
camera, which is useful for self-portraits.
