Read a small label in a store
Read the fine print on a jar without hunting for your glasses.
Point the camera at small print and pinch outward. The screen shows the words several times their real size.
Holding the picture still helps most: your hand can shake and the words stay put.
Key points
- The camera enlarges small print wherever you are standing
- Freezing the picture holds the words still while you read
What to remember
- Zoom, then freeze. The still picture is the readable one.
- Zoom makes it bigger. Freezing makes it readable.
Try this
Point your camera at the back of a jar in your kitchen and pinch outward. Nothing is saved unless you press the shutter.
