- I really love the camera on my Tour, and I really love taking pictures of pretty much everything. However I'm really a perfectionist when it comes to photos, and I HATE it when my pictures are crooked or slanted or anything. I know some cameras have the option for grid lines to be placed on the screen (creating 9 boxes on the screen) that help with both framing the picture and making sure everything is straight. Does anyone know if there's an option like that for the Blackberry camera, or there are any apps that do this?11-20-09 09:57 AMLike 0
- That's not what the purpose of the grid lines are for. The lines are there to help you with the "rule of thirds." The concept basically says that rather than putting your subject in the very center of the picture, you should divide your screen into thirds and put your subject along one of those lines. The preferable position on the screen would be where a horizontal line and a vertical line intersect. This way, you capture your subject and its surrounds, with the focus being that the subject was at that location (say, your family at a Hawaiian beach). If, on the other hand, you had left your family at the center of the picture, who cares where the picture was taken?11-20-09 10:44 AMLike 0

But, I know what you mean as well. I dont there is another answer for you though. It's a camera, in a phone.11-20-09 04:21 PMLike 0 - this is only a no big deal 3.2MP camera inside a cell phone.. if your so picky about a camera, I would highly recommend you not use a camera phone and use at least a 10MP camera since your so picky11-20-09 04:28 PMLike 0
