The voice of the BlackBerry community.
The company Inline Marmalade let us know about their first BlackBerry app called PixTrix, which is a simple to use photo editing app. With PixTrix, users can apply photographic filters to their pics, much like Instagram for iPhone. The app is currently available as a public beta, and can be used with devices running OS 5.0 with 6.0 not currently available but coming soon.
Taking a good photo is really important. It’s annoying to send around family and friend pictures that are blurry and pixelated once you open them on a desktop. The latest BlackBerrys have cameras strong enough to take a decent picture, you just need to know how. Here are 12 simple tips to taking a good pic with your BlackBerry.
1. Get Closer
While you can capture panoramas with your camera, you’ll take the best possible photos by getting close to your subject matter. Go ahead and take a few extra steps toward what you’re shooting—the images you capture will be much more engaging.
2. Hold Steady
Camera shake is the primary reason for blurry photos, whether you’re using a cameraphone or a digital SLR. To capture a crisp, clear image, hold your device with two hands or use one hand to brace your arm. If possible, hold your smartphone on top of a desk or other object to reduce camera shake.
3. Be Patient
