How To Take Sharp Photos With Your Smart Phone. by pomide(m): 10:19am On Jun 11, 2015 |
You don't really need to snap 40 selfies.. then use the finest one.... (PS.. you actually look like the 39 you discarded ) Anyways... here are the tips Straight Up!! 1. Clean Your Lens It may seem a bit obsessive to carry around a lens cloth for your phone, but keeping the lens's optical path clean is one of the most basic ways to improve picture quality. Whether your lens sits flush with the phone's exterior or even worse, extends outward, it's inevitable that a finger or other oil-depositing object will frequently come into contact with its clear protective cover, leaving residue that can smear image details. 2. Get a (good) Grip There's no denying the convenience and portability of a smartphone compared to even a compact standalone camera. It's equally true, however, that the small size and light weight of smartphones can actually make them more difficult to hold steady while taking a picture. And a shaky camera equals a blurry photo. The most stable method of holding your smartphone is with two hands, whether you're holding the phone in a horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) format. Just as with a dedicated camera, keep your elbows tucked in towards your body and hold the phone closer to your face rather than extending it at arm's length. 3. Zoom With Your Feet All current native smartphone lenses have a fixed focal length, and it's a relatively wide one, anywhere from about 28mm to 35mm (compared to a full frame camera sensor). Any zoom features on offer are of the digital, rather than optical variety. This means that the image is simply resized, or more specifically, upsampled, after the image is taken to produce a magnified view. Digital zoom always produces a lower quality, less detailed image. 4. Shoot in Good Light The best hand-holding technique in the world won't help much if your subject is moving during the length of the exposure. Smartphone lenses have a fixed aperture (the size of the lens opening) so one way your camera controls scene brightness is via the shutter speed (the amount of time the sensor receives light). When you shoot in low light, the shutter will stay open longer to allow enough light to produce an image. Unfortunately, this can make it all too easy to record even the slightest movement by your subject. This is known as motion blur. 5. Use an Anti-shake App There are times, obviously, when you're forced to hold your smartphone in a less than ideal position or shoot in dim light. In those instances, you'll be thankful for having an app with an 'anti-shake' option. Apps include Procamera for IOs or Camera Zoom Fx for Android. Finally, 6. Carry a Minipod Even in the smartphone era, the fundamental principles of photo technique apply. And photographers have always recognized that taking the sharpest possible picture involves using a tripod. Several small, inexpensive and easy to use options exist that are made specifically for smartphones. http://connect.dpreview.com/post/4414815219/photo-tip-sharp-photos 8 Likes 3 Shares
