Camera phone in use.
Camera phone video function does not always capture the best-quality images. Camera phones can take video that is dark or difficult to see during playback. Sound from camera phone video can also be muffled or distorted. Having strong knowledge of your camera phone and a good idea of the best conditions for video capture will make you an expert at troubleshooting camera phone video.
Instructions
Lighting
1. Make sure your target is under the best and brightest light possible. Camera phones do not always capture subjects clearly in the dark. If your target isn't well-lighted, your video may come out too dark.
2. Avoid pointing light into your camera phone's lens. If the subject is too bright, your camera phone may not capture clear images.
3. Use the flash and contrast options on your camera phone as necessary.
Audio
4. Avoid windy filming conditions. Wind can drown out your intended audio target. Excessive movement also creates this effect.
5. Capture video in areas with limited background noise. Avoid crowded public areas.
6. Use a miniature external microphone if your camera phone does not provide adequate sound quality. Keep the microphone protected and as close to your subject as possible.
Operation
7. Keep a steady hand. Video may not capture clearly if the camera phone is moving. Make sure the camera is as still as possible.
8. Be mindful not to cover any opening intended for audio or video reception. Sound may not record properly if you are obstructing the microphone. Video may not capture properly if you obstruct the lens.
9. Thoroughly investigate the software function and capabilities of your camera phone before attempting to record. You could easily delete or destroy your video with the push of a button if you do not know use the capture function or software properly.
