voice tag, open a contact card, and select Options > Play 
voice tag.

Select Options > Image setup > Flash > On to use the 
flash.
If the flash is set to Off or Automatic during bright

Image setup settings and main settings. To adjust Image 
setup settings, see ‘Adjust color and lighting’, p. 34. The

close the camera, but the main settings remain the same 
until you change them again. To change the main settings, 
select Options > Settings and from the following:
Image quality—High - Print, Med. - E-mail, or Low - 
Multimedia. The better the image quality, the more 
memory the image consumes. The quality of a zoomed 
picture is lower than that of a non-zoomed picture. If you 
want to print the image, select High - Print (resolution 
1600x1200). If you want to send it through e-mail, select 
Med. - E-mail (resolution 1024x768). To send the image 
through MMS, select Low - Multimedia (resolution 
640x480).
Glossary: Resolution is a measure of sharpness and
