Before Using the Camera
You can record images by the FOMA terminal’s built-in camera, which you can send
by attaching to i-mode mail, posting on a blog, setting for the stand-by display, and
so on.
Also, when you save a recorded image into the microSD memory card, a reduced
image can be saved in the FOMA terminal at the same time (P.174, 315).
To use the microSD memory card, you need to obtain a microSD memory card
separately. If you do not have a microSD memory card, you can purchase one at a
home electric appliance store or other similar store (P.302).

The image recorded by the camera may differ from actual color or brightness of object.
About Using the Camera
Notes Before Using the Camera
ˎ
Clear images cannot be obtained if the camera lens is stained with fingerprints or grease. Wipe
the camera with a soft clean cloth before recording an image.
ˎ
Leaving the FOMA terminal in a place exposed to direct sunlight or high temperature for a long
period of time may deteriorate the image quality.
ˎ
You cannot start the Camera mode when the battery level is very low. To use the camera,
charge the battery sufficiently.
ˎ
The Camera mode may not be activated when the FOMA terminal is charged electrostatically.
Notes on Using the Camera
ˎ
To prevent shaking, hold the FOMA terminal firmly or place it on a stable place and use the
Auto timer when recording.
ˎ
When you try to record a strong light source directly, such as the sun or a lamp, the screen may
black out or the image on the screen may be distorted.
ˎ
The camera is manufactured based on the leading edge technologies, and black and bright
points or lines may appear constantly in the display. Additionally, increased noise may appear
as white lines when recording in a low-light environment. These are not malfunctions.
ˎ
When the battery level becomes very low in the Camera mode, the Camera mode is terminated.
