Work Night Mode On A Casio Ravine Phone

The Casio Ravine from Verizon Wireless comes with a 3.2 megapixel camera that includes a number of features, including Night Mode, designed for taking pictures at night. With this mode enabled, the camera's flash goes off, illuminating the foreground, but the shutter stays open for a few more moments, allowing the background to show up in the image as well. Using Night Mode on the Ravine is as simple as turning the feature on and taking the right kind of image.


Instructions


1. Flip the Casio Ravine phone open. Press the center of the directional pad, called the "Center Select" key, to bring up the main menu.


2. Scroll to the "Media Center" icon and press the "Center Select" key to select it. Press the number "3" to access the "Picture & Video" menu, and then the number "5" to take a picture.


3. Press the right soft key to access the picture options. Scroll down to "Night Mode" and select it. Choose "On" from the list of options. Press the red "End" key to exit the camera options menu.


4. Prepare your Night Mode shot. This requires something in the foreground of your picture and a night scene in the background. According to the phone's manual, the flash works best on subjects that are between 14 and 20 inches from the camera.


5. Hold the phone as steady as possible, since any movement during the long exposure will blue your picture. Press the center button to take the picture. The flash goes off, and it may take an extra second for the image to show up on your screen, as the camera captures light for a little longer than normal.
