Activate Live Image Feature On Your Lumia

Nokia has been doing innovative stuff in the smartphone camera department. The Lumia 930 was the first phone to feature OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation). Then, it took the world by surprise by cramming in 41 megapixel sensor inside the Lumia 1020. It's also the only manufacturer to feature Zeiss optics in its smartphone cameras. Their hardware is accompanied by equally interesting software. If Refocus, Cinemagraph, Smart Cam, and Nokia Camera weren't enough, the company has now come-up with a new Live Image feature that adds fun element to the photo gallery.

As its name suggests, Living Image feature adds motion to your static photos (much like animated GIFs). These animations are of roughly a second. To capture Live Image, you don't have to fire-up any app. It's built right into the Nokia Camera. This feature works right out-of-the-box, on the recently reviewed Lumia 830. However, you will have to turn it on manually. So if this feature is not working on your Lumia 730, 930, or 1520, follow these steps:

Step 1. Check the software version. Go to Settings, then click on 'extras+info'. For the Lumia 730 and 930, it should be Lumia Denim. On the 1520, the Cyan update is enough.

Step 2. Fire-up Nokia Camera, go to Settings. Head-over to Settings, and set 'Capture Live Images' to 'On'. Also check box for 'Play Living Images'.

Step 3. Start StoryTeller app. Go to Settings, and enable 'Play Rich Content'

That's it. Now click a lot of photographs. You can view those Live Images from Nokia Camera Viewer and StoryTeller app. For some reasons, you can access them from the Photos Hub.
