Change The Lighting In A Picture On A Blackberry

The BlackBerry camera is highly configurable. Using flash settings, white balance and a feature called "Camera Scene Mode," you can control the lighting of your photos taken with the BlackBerry. To add light to a photo, enable flash on the device. Set the white balance and select a scene from the Camera Scene Mode to have more control over the lighting of your photos. Camera Scene Mode allows the user to select a scene which optimizes the lighting of the photo for that particular scene. For example, the "Beach" scene adjusts the lighting to highlight the blues in the sky and water, and accurately captures the color of sand.
