Camera
Your Nokia N72 has a high resolution camera on the back
of the device that can be used to take still images and
videos.
To activate the camera, open the camera lens cover on the
back of the device. The Camera application starts when
the camera is activated, and you can see the view to be
captured.
In Camera, you can take pictures and record videos.
To move between still image and video capture,
select Options > Image mode or Video mode.
The images and video clips are automatically saved in the
Gallery. The cameras produce .jpeg images, and video clips

format (High video quality mode). See “Video settings”,
p. 26. You can also send images or a video in a multimedia
message as an e-mail attachment, or by using Bluetooth
connectivity.

Your Nokia N72 supports an image capture resolution of
