Camera
Camera is a combination camera and camcorder that you use to shoot and share pictures and videos.
Pictures and videos are stored on the phone’s SD card. Copy your pictures and videos to a computer, as
described in “Connecting to a computer via USB”. View your pictures and videos on the phone, edit them,
share them and so on with Gallery. See “Gallery”.
