Taking A Photo - Medion LIFE X44000 Mode D'emploi

• Try to tell a story with your pictures; 4 or 5 pictures are often enough to turn snapshots into
a small story.
• Check the angle if the subject is lit from behind. Change your position to reduce the back-
ground lighting.
• Experiment with different perspectives to create more interesting pictures for the viewer.
• If you want to save memory space on the memory card, then do not reduce the resolution
of the images but increase the image compression instead (see page 40).
• The tips about good photographs can also be applied to video recordings; but, in addition,
you also need to make sure that you pan the camera slowly and keep it steady. If you pan
too quickly, the video recordings will be fuzzy and blurred. A tripod can be also very helpful
for video recordings.
