The need to capture the moment is already a sort of necessity especially for people who love to share pictures on social networking media, technology continues to evolve at the camera phone as well as on Sony Experia, well here are tips to optimize camera phone that can match the photography quality:

Fast capture
A neat feature; even when in standby, by pressing the camera key, you can go from sleep to snap in a little over a second. Not one for artistic shots, but great for capturing action or even mishaps and misfortune.

Customisable menu
Simply hit settings on your camera interface screen and then drag and drop your preferred setting into the viewfinder window. One for the budding professionals or perfectionists amongst us giving you easy access to all your favourite functions.

Different capture modes
(Normal, Scene recognition, Sweep Panorama, Sweep Multi Angle and 3D Sweep Panorama). This is sweet and something that’s a hallmark of Sony Digital Cybershot cameras. In normal – you pick the scene settings manually and with scene recognition.

Sweep Panorama
Sweep Multi-angle and 3D Sweep panorama : 3D Sweep Panorama lets you create panoramic photos that can be viewed in either 2D or 3D on a compatible TV. Then, Sweep Multi-angle; it lets you create an almost lenticular image that gives the impression of depth.

Sensory perception
Your Xperia smartphone camera features an Exmor R BSI CMOS sensor. To geek out for a minute, the sensor uses a back illuminated sensor which means the light receptor isn’t blocked by the wire circuit – which then means light falls directly onto the receptive areas of the sensor – which means more light – which means less noise, even in low light.

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 4 Apr 2012 14:23:00 +0700

Having been present exclusively in the iOS, Instagram finally landed well on Android. Yes, wait the arrival of the popular image processing application has ended. Instagram founder, Kevin Sysytrom his word when he spoke at the SXSW technology.

At that time, he said that the arrival Instagram for Android will happen soon. He even promises faster performance on the Google's operating system. Want a taste? Instagram for Android can be downloaded at Google Play, of course, available for free.

The app is very simple to use. You just open it up and capture a photo or select one that you already took. You can then add various filters, add borders and share your creation on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Posterous, Foursquare or via e-mail.

You can also build followers within Instagram’s social network, where people can like and comment on your pictures. The tab with the star icon will show you the most popular photos on the network from other users, while the heart bubble icon will show you the latest creations from your friends.

In comparison to its iPhone counterpart, Instagram for Android is still missing a couple of features. It has the same filters and community features as the iOS version, but the Android app lacks features such as Tilt/Shift and Flickr integration, which should be available in subsequent updates.

There is no harm in trying some alternative Instagram apps on Android devices, to other image processing applications that are not less interesting.
