§ If there are parts of the image that are in shadows and others are in highlights, use HDR to
capture multiple shots of different exposures and combine them into one shot. Keep HTC
One X10 steady or place it on a level surface when using HDR. See Using HDR on page 69
for details.
§ When taking a panoramic photo, consider the whole scene and focus on an object that has a
neutral tone to help keep the exposure balanced in the composite image.
§ Make sure you're not moving the camera when taking a photo, especially in low light
conditions. Hold the phone steady and don't move the camera while taking RAW photos in
Pro mode.
