Nokia Tripod DT-22 Pictures

Following are a set of Nokia DT-22 Tripod pictures that I have for you. We just got this wonderful accessory and I sure can say that it makes clicking pictures a whole lot more fun. It's sleek and easy to carry around. The built is also very strong and the design is also amazing. It works great for making videos at home and clicking some serious Macro pictures. I will be posting more about this in the coming days so keep a check.

Nokia N91 - Still Alive - Still Clicking

So if you are thinking that only the new Nseries wave of devices can snap amazing shots, then you better take a look at this. The Nokia N91 8GB has been used to capture the retiring sun on the city of Bengaluru. It's simply spectacular. The only thing that the Nseries miss is an inbuilt GPS & Auto Focus, but in all a great shot. Thanks to Gizzfreak for sharing this with us. If you want to share some of your shots, then just tag them as s60blog on Share Ovi and we will have them up :P

Upload, Watch And Embed High Quality Videos On YouTube

Steve has highlighted how you can upload best quality video from your camera phone up on Youtube. Its a good guide for those who have high speed internet connection and want their media to have the same quality as it was recorded with. Just read along below for a quick guide on how to do that. We took out the main points here for you, so if you need a more detailed guide then please jump over here for Steve's post.

1. Garbage in, garbage out, obviously. So make your video captures as good as possible. The usual suspects apply here. Shoot in sunlight if possible, try not to shoot into the sun, shoot subjects at an appropriate focus point, depending on your device (the N82 is good at close-ups/people, the N96 [and N85 etc] are preset to focus on more distant objects - annoyingly).
2. Having uploaded your file, there's a short wait while YouTube's servers 'process' it. In practice, this means re-encoding it to their own Flash video format. It's also quite low resolution (QVGA?), so the first trick is to wait a little longer. YouTube's servers have spotted the fact that you've uploaded a high resolution video and have set to work doing a second encode, this time to a much higher resolution. An hour or so after the video first goes live, a 'Watch in high quality' link pops up below the main video window and viewers can then choose to switch to the higher bandwidth, higher quality version if they like.
3. Click on the little gear wheel icon besides the embedding code. Choose the largest of the possible embedding frame sizes. This just happens to be 640 pixels wide, perfect for your new videos.
