Picture taking with the android phone


the picture below was taken with the android camera. although the spec is 3mega pixel it is sometimes hard to get a decent pic. This time though the rays were caught on my bike. I think it makes a good pic......

The android camera and twitter and gmail and sending





Sunday I visited box hill on my Ducati 916. Its a meeting place for bikers. While there I used my android phone to take a picture in twitter and also to send pictures by email. I have added the pictures below. There is a variety of ways to use.
I took a picture, saved to the sd card.
I took a picture, choose the share option and as I have twitter installed, I updated with a few short words. If you follow me on twitter you can see the pics.
I took a picture and choose the option to send them by Gmail to a friend.

One thing i have noticed is that the phone prefers to be in the up position. As if you are holding the phone to your ear, this way the picture fills the screen. If you use the camera in landscape, when viewed the picture is squashed to fit. See if you can see the difference below.
