Tip of The Week
If you like taking digital photos using a camera phone, here are some great tips.The first tip - always remember that camera phones crave light. Get as close to the light as possible and chances are your picture will turn out well.
The second tip is to get really close to your subject. This is because most camera phones usually do not have the benefit of optical zoom lenses.
The third tip is to hold the camera phone really, really steady. Always hold the phone as steady as possible, press the shutter release, and wait several seconds. That will ensure the picture is fully recorded before you start moving around.
