Recording video clips on the Motorola RIZR

With the camera on the Motorola V3i you can also record video clips as easily as taking a picture

Setting up the video camera

To turn on the video recorder:

From the standby screen press Central Navigation Button, then highlight Multi Media and press Select.
Select Camera and press Select.

You can also press the Camera button or, if you are already using the screen as a viewfinder, press Options and scroll down to Go To Video Mode.

When you have turned on the video camera, you can open the Video Menu by pressing the Central Navigation Button. This offers the following options:

Go To Videos – Watch saved clips, and do things such as Delete, Rename or Move clips.
Go To Photo Mode – Switch to stills camera
Light On - This turns on the Flash
Video Camera Setup – Choose to change Video Quality (Good, Better, Best), change the Video Length (Either MMS or Maximum), Resolution (Either 128x96 or 176x144), and whether Sound Recording is on or off.
Switch Storage Device – Choose to store clips either on the phone or its memory card
Free Space

Recording a video

Once you have set up the video recorder, you can begin recording a video clip.

Point the camera lens at the subject of your video.
Press the Central Navgation Button to begin recording and press Stop when you want to finish.
You can then Send it or press Options: To choose Store Only, Discard or Preview.

N.B. The video records in low-res format meaning that the quality is not as good as for pictures, and it is best not to move the camera very much to avoid picture blurring.
