Have you ever taken photos that turned out blurry or too dark?
In this article, we'll share 7 tips for taking beautiful photos with your smartphone.
1. Clean the Lens
An often overlooked detail is lens cleanliness. Fingerprints and oils can make photos hazy or cause light to blur. Wipe the lens with a soft cloth before shooting.
2. Hold Steady with Both Hands
To prevent camera shake, hold your phone firmly with both hands. Keep your elbows close to your body for stability. Be careful not to move when pressing the shutter button.
3. Tap to Focus
Smartphone cameras focus where you tap on the screen. Tap on your subject before shooting for perfectly focused photos.
4. Adjust Brightness
After focusing, swipe up or down on the screen to adjust brightness (varies by device). Use this when shooting against the light or when your subject is dark.
5. Use Grid Lines
Enable grid lines in your camera settings. Following the "rule of thirds" by placing subjects at the intersection of grid lines creates well-balanced photos.
6. Use Burst Mode
Burst mode is useful for moving subjects. Take many shots and select the best one later.
7. Avoid Using Flash
Smartphone flash can make subjects look unnaturally white or cause red-eye. Use natural light whenever possible. In dark places, adjust brightness or use HDR mode instead.
Summary
With just a few simple tips, your smartphone photos can look remarkably better. Try these techniques before your next event or trip.
