While some reading this might be aware of the Nokia n95's camera capabilities, others might in the dark. Whether you know it or not, the Nokia n95 has a capable video capture device built-in. Here are some tips to get the most out of your camera, and capture video you'll want to watch again and again.

- First, utilize the largest memory card that is allowed for the Nokia n95. Which to my knowledge is at the moment - 8 GB. The reason being is that video takes up a lot of storage space (28 MB/min). So, if you're going to be taking a lot of video, or a lot of little videos then a comparable memory card is a must.

- There's a feature on the Nokia n95 phone that for the most part is useless. Digital Zoom does what it says but you're losing quality in the process. If you need a closer view of something, simply get closer to it. You'll thank me later for this tip.

- This tip is an extension of the prior. Don't try to film 'too' close to something. There's not an auto focus to try and state at least one meter away from what you're shooting.

- Make sure you have a source of light when you shoot a movie. Capturing a good scene is just like taking a picture, lighting is everything.

- This might go without saying but always be cautious of your movements. Do you enjoy watching movies, home made or otherwise that continually having the camera jerk around? No, so keep your movements subtle and slow.

Taking into account all of these tips you have one decent movie already. As always, make sure it's content that people actually want to view. Or just keep it for your private collection
