iPhone Camera Essentials

Using the iPhone camera couldn’t be simpler.Tap the screen, and presto, you’ve got your photo. That’s all there is to it, right? Well, not exactly. As it turns out, the iPhone camera is deceptive in its simplicity.Think of your iPhone camera as a blank slate, just waiting for you to transform it into the most amazing camera you’ve ever owned—an inspiring tool for photographic experimentation and creativity. With the help of an innovative ecosystem of photography apps, you’re able to convert the iPhone’s bare-bones camera into a magical camera-and-darkroom combo. Soon enough, your iPhone camera will be as featurefilled as a digital single-lens reflex (SLR)—and far more fun and versatile. One minute you’ll be capturing photos with the hipster look of the Lomo LC-A camera, and the next you’ll be snapping a series of images for an arcade photo booth strip.Before you know it, you may realize your Canon or Nikon is snug in its case and your iPhone is now your de facto camera of choice. If you’re looking to explore the boundaries of photographic creativity, there’s no better way than with the iPhone.

Reasons to Love Your iPhone Camera 

I’ve been obsessed with photography since I was a teenager. I got an SLR when I was 15 and proceeded to spend an absurd amount of time watching the silver drift off photographic paper in my high school’s darkroom. I loved it—the amber glow of the darkroom light, the acrid odor of the fixer, the sheer magic of images appearing from nowhere.

Yet I’ve never had as much fun with photography as I have with my iPhone

camera. Here’s why:

 > It’s always with you. The iPhone camera encourages spontaneity and experimentation. It’s slim, it’s lightweight, and it’s always with you. You can slip the iPhone camera out of your purse or pocket and

grab a shot.

 > You can customize the camera.Other cameras have a fixed set of features.Not the iPhone.Any number of apps let you customize the camera with features such as a self-timer and burst mode.

 > You have Photoshop in your pocket. By focusing on discrete tasks, the iPhone’s photography apps make Photoshop-like effects relatively easy to accomplish, without the hassles (and learning curve) of Photoshop’s menus and palettes. Just tap an app, and seconds later—right on your iPhone!—you’re altering the image’s color saturation or reproducing the look of a Polaroid SX-70 camera.

 > Snap, tweak, publish. Nothing compares to the ease of taking a photo with the iPhone, creating a luscious blur or applying an off-the-wall filter, and then publishing it to your photoblog. You’re liberated from connection cables and hard-to-master photo-editing tools.
