The Basics
After you’ve got a phone with an appropriate camera, now let’s learn how to use it well. To get the best results, you’ve got to know how to use it. And here are some tricks :
Choose the highest quality/resolution setting
Go with the largest file size and the highest resolution setting that your phone allows. Be generous with the size because this will give you the best image possible to start with, and you can always reduce file size when you edit it.
Bring the camera close up to the object instead. It will give you better results.
Forget taking a selfie
Always use the rear-facing camera, the resolution is way higher than the front facing camera.
Clean your lens
You put your phone on your pocket, in your purse, on your table so dust, dirt and smudges are there sometimes. They will be super noticeable on your lens, so make sure you clean it first.
Turn the flash off
Flash off, get your lighting right and for the sake of a good photo don’t use it.
Steady your camera
Invest in a small tripod, a tiny purchase that will make a big difference.
You can also use something to put your phone and instead of touching it to take pictures, use the timer to avoid mini shakes.
