    Help Photo's

    Hi, When I take a photo with my camera, sometimes the photo saves in the DCIM/100ANDROID folder as a DSC.jpg file, then sometimes it saves in the DCIM/.thumbnails folder as a 13 digit number jpg file. What's the difference between these and why do they save in different locations?

    Car Mount

    I have been looking at a car mount for my Z1 Compact and really like the look of the iOttie One Touch. The only downfall on this mount is that I think the side grips would cover the power button, which is obviously a big problem...
