Tiny T610 Collage...

Posted July 7, 2003 11:04 PM.

I'll be buggered if I can figure out how to get photo-messaging or e-mail or the interweb working on my little T610, which they don't tell you but doesn't actually make images of a decent useful size (not 640x480, but 288x352 of all sizes). I've fiddled with the settings incessantly. Maybe I need to talk to the company themselves. Anyway - I'll be buggered if I can send 'em, but I can sure as hell take 'em. Presenting a collage of the first few days with my new phone...

I encountered trouble using my 610 on 02. It appears that you need to switch wap profiles if you want to use MMS and E-mail. Normally your provider can e-mail you the correct settings for GPRS or MMS. It is straight forward to set up e-mail. Sony Erricson also have a configurators for all this here:

Great pics! I must admit I was pretty dubious about the merits of taking photos with a phone when they first came onto the market, but many of the pics I've seen have been really good, including yours. Great color saturation; they're almost lomographic. Nice work.

Recently got a t300. Go to maplin and get a Sitecom IRDA adapter for 20 quid or use a laptop with IRDA to copy files direct to your computer. This is far better and free.

As I am about to buy a new phone and as I am thinking of buying a T610 I'd appreciate if you could post (or mail) your experience with it at some later point. Would be cool ... thnx.

What you need to do is relish the restrictions imposed on you by your phone. I don't know what the maximum size on my phone (sharp gx10i) is, but I find the 120x160 medium setting is enough to show enough detail while forcing you to focus on detail photography. Hence my lovely site. Some BBC tardis ones would be cool.
