How to make better photos with Nokia E50

Today I’d like to give you a few basic tips that can help you make better pictures with the E50 camera. Don’t expect any wonders though, the E50 camera has its limits. If you are after the high quality photos you better look for some real camera ;)
This post was inspired by one of the readers of this blog. I’m very happy for any feedback I receive and I try to reply to every email. Keep them coming, I really enjoy conversation with others. I’m not any professional in photography, I just follow the basic rules.
Tips to make better pictures with Nokia E50
- good light – this is a general rule for any photography; if it’s cloudy outside you won’t get nice shot, especially with a low end camera which is implemented in most of the mobile phones
- hold steady – Nokia E50 tends to capture photos with a delay of about 1 – 1.5 seconds; keep your phone steady after pressing the button and you’ll see an improvement on the sharpness of your pictures
- don’t zoom – E50 camera has only digital zoom which is almost useless; it produces very blurry pictures that are unusable; don’t be lazy and make a few steps closer to your object
- image processing – if you are familiar with programs like Photoshop or GIMP you might want to edit your photos on pc; I like what Silvester does with his photos
So there you have it. Practice makes perfect so don’t be shy and make more pictures while you are out. You can make some really nice shots even with basic camera. If you don’t believe take a look at some of the Friday Photos. Feel free to add your own tips!
