How to take good-looking photos with iPhone?

The function and skills of a mobile phone are the key to a good movie, just like a mobile phone. However, when others take pictures casually, they are beautiful, but what they take carefully is often unsightly?

Don't worry, the mobile phone is easy to use, but the photography technology should also keep up! These mobile phone shooting techniques hope to help you:

1. Composition is skillful.

Function: Grid

As the most basic and practical function, composition must be mastered in minutes, and skills such as stretching your legs sideways and putting your toes on the bottom are needless to say.

Many mobile phones have their own grid or three-point line function, which can be adjusted and used. If the subject is placed at the intersection, the shooting effect will be lively and conform to the visual aesthetic feeling, and the composition will never deviate.

2. The image quality should be guaranteed.

Function: Auto Exposure/Focus/Flash

Xenon flash is generally used in cameras and LED flash is used in mobile phones. It works well indoors, but the outdoor effect is unbearable.

Therefore, in the case of insufficient light, try to shoot by increasing exposure and avoid using flash. When shooting with iPhone, you can adjust the exposure value by holding down the focus and sliding up and down.

The zoom of a mobile phone is different from that of a camera. The camera is optical zoom, and the mobile phone uses software to intercept a part of the imaging surface for software interpolation and amplification to achieve the zoom effect. Therefore, the greater the zoom factor of the mobile phone, the worse the effect. Use with caution.

3. Try various modes

Function: Panorama/Plaza/Time-lapse Photography/continuous shooting.

It will be very tiring to shoot with your mobile phone every day, so it is necessary to try more models on your mobile phone. Not only are there many ways to play, but sometimes the key can also create miracles.

1) Panoramic function:

Panorama can show a very broad picture, with a sense of God's vision, which can bring a sense of shock if shot well.

Panorama is actually to detect the edges of multiple photos through multiple exposures and automatically synthesize the shooting effect of mosaic processing. When shooting, you must keep moving in parallel. In addition, because multiple exposures are required, the effect is better when the ambient light is not much different.

2) Square:

The photos we usually see are rectangular, horizontal or vertical, and the box gives people a sense of elegance in painting and calligraphy.

Think about the presentation of "I am not Pan Jinlian", and you will understand that special frames are often unique, and the pictures highlight key points and attract people's off-screen associations.

3) Time-lapse photography:

Time-lapse photography is to shrink the process of slow change of objects to a very short time. Because people can see the effects that they can't see in daily life, it is not a problem to attract people's admiration.

Many mobile phones have this function, which is much easier than taking pictures with a camera. The key is to ensure that the mobile phone is fully charged, and it is best to fix it when shooting.

4) Continuous shooting function:

That's not much, is it? Snapshot is the most suitable for continuous shooting, because it can snap many photos in an instant, and then choose the most suitable one, which is very suitable for taking photos such as jumping and swinging on the beach.

As long as you press the shutter button for a long time, you can continuous shooting, which is not too convenient.

4. Don't give up special effects

Features: HDR/ Black and White/Auxiliary Camera APP

1)HDR mode:

HDR refers to high dynamic range images, which can improve brightness in the dark and reduce overexposure. Simply put, it can make the picture texture contrast strongly and the picture clear and distinct. You can try it when shooting backlighting and sunset scenes.

2) Black and white mode:

Black and white film, literary retro, has a sense of vicissitudes, street shooting and old buildings can be tried.

In addition to black and white, there are various mobile phone filters to try. There are always surprises waiting for you. In addition to the camera function that comes with the mobile phone, you can also install a camera APP to realize special camera functions. Say beauty, please stand down.

This is a common photography skill for mobile phones. Although not as changeable as a camera, the flexible use of film is not necessarily worse than a camera!
