Taking good picture with 701

I have a Nokia 701 but I have yet to figured it out how to produce good quality pictures with it.

Mostly I have to take pictures of small-ish objects. That are not far away. Meaning objects that are about 40 to 60cm away. I always get the object I need to take all fuzzy and everything behind it clear.

What am I doing wrong? What setting do I need to change?

Please help me as I am a total idiot when it comes to taking pictures.

 

Thanks,

Tarmo

Re: Taking good picture with 701

Hey Tarmo120, Welcome to the Nokia Forums!

 

How close are you shooting exactly?

All lenses have a minimum distance at which they are able to focus, with most lenses this distance is around 0.5m. 

 

Anything under this distance the lense will not focus on, and as a result will focus on whatever else it can. Camera's built into Nokia devices are not designed with Macro photography in mind, and are designed for more general photography purposes.

 

The way you can over come this is by taking the shot from further away but using more zoom, it will slightly improve the image quality however you will start to lose detail in resolution.

 

I hope this helps
