Apple photography skills

The metadata of photos taken with smart phones contains the geographical location information at the time of shooting. We can organize these works according to the shooting location in Lightroom map module. You take photos with iPhone every day, do you really give full play to the camera potential of iPhone? Have you really been able to take photos of the effect you want at will? The following eight photo-taking techniques can definitely make the selfie more beautiful, although they can't make your iPhone SLR get it in one second! I sorted out the shooting skills of Apple's mobile phone and shared them with you!

Apple mobile phone shooting skills 1. The effect of "shallow depth of field"

Because the sensor of iPhone is really small, it is impossible to take photos with ultra-shallow depth of field. However, with this trick, you can increase the visibility of some photos when shooting small objects and food!

Operating steps:

1. Turn on the iPhone camera, and then press and hold the object you want to focus on in the picture. After about three seconds, a yellow label with the words "AE/AF Lock" will appear on the screen. When this picture appears, the focus distance setting will no longer move.

2. At this time, as long as you gently turn the phone to the left and right sides of the subject, you can easily take photos with shallow depth of field!

Precautions:

1. The subject should not be too far away from the mobile phone, preferably not more than 30cm.

2. The scenery behind the main body should be far away from the main body, preferably with a distance of more than 30 cm.

Apple mobile phone shooting skills 2, panoramic shooting

IPhone camera has built-in panoramic photo shooting function. Just turn the iPhone slightly, and you can take horizontal and vertical photos to capture the beautiful scenery. But you know what? In fact, the arrow direction of this function can be changed.

As long as you tap the arrow, you can switch the camera shooting direction from left to right, and with the help of iPhone gyroscope, panoramic shooting can not only shoot horizontal pictures, but also from top to bottom and from bottom to top!

Apple's mobile phone shooting skills three. microscope

As long as a drop of water, iPhone becomes a microscope! This is not an exaggeration. As early as 20 12, Alex Wilder, a naturalist and entomologist in Illinois, USA, did it. As long as you gently drop a drop of water on the iPhone camera, you can turn the iPhone camera into a macro lens. But users who want to imitate should pay attention, water is generally bad for mobile phone components, so be careful!

Apple mobile phone shooting skills 4. Make good use of "HDR" function

The built-in HDR function of iPhone is generally used to shoot advertisements or scenes that are easily overexposed in the sun, but in fact HDR can also be used to shoot dark scenes.

The operation principle of HDR is to quickly take multiple photos with different exposures for synthesis, which can make the scene light source more uniform. So, if you want to take more "beautiful" photos in dim light, don't forget to turn on the HDR function!

Apple mobile phone shooting skills 5. Use an "integral" sensor.

OEMs often set the image scale to 16:9, which inevitably leads to the waste of "effective pixels" of sensors. So, if your camera is not native 16:9, please try to switch to the native scale (pixels).

Apple mobile phone shooting skills 6. Try a third-party camera App.

There are many excellent third-party camera applications on iOS's iTunes App Store, which are either more targeted or more functional than their own camera programs.
