iPhone Photography

We have these incredible devices we carry around in our pockets, it's a portable photo studio that has a camera and editing software. In my case it is an iPhone and after I have taken a photo I want to edit it. I can do this easily using the built-in photo app on my iPhone, iPad or Mac. And like a lot of other software such as Adobe Lightroom it is non-destructive. What does that mean? Well if you make changes to the photo it does not change the original and you can always go back to that original. Even if you crop it. In this video I talk about a setting that I don't have in Lightroom so I have done a video all about that, although I touch on it in this video.

Have you done any editing in the photo app on your iPhone, iPad or Mac then you might have noticed a setting called brilliance. Now I use Lightroom for a lot of my photographic processing but there isn't an option there for brilliance, so I wondered what it did. It kind of does the opposite to contrast and in this video I show you what it does.

Did you know you can hide photos on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. You might have something personal or perhaps you want to keep something secret, maybe it is photos of some passwords or a gift idea and you want to make sure no one else sees it. Thankfully you can save it to a hidden album. You can then hide the hidden album. You then need a passcode, Face ID or Touch ID to open the album. This works a bit differently on iOS 15 and iOS 16 so I show you how it works on both here.

If you are like me I use the Live Photo feature on my iPhone and iPad. If you have used it too you know it records a few seconds of video and then displays a default picture. But what if that is not the photo you want displayed? Sure you can tap and hold to see the whole sequence but you might just want the displayed photo to be one you choose. Well you can change it and in this video I show you how to do that. If you want to see more then check out my website http://www.jargonfreehelp.com

Just what is a gimbal? The simple answer is that it is a camera stabiliser. It allows you to get nice smooth video when handheld and also do other things like track your subject and even use it to create photographic panoramas. Gimbals are reasonably priced and can come with built in cameras or there are some designed to take your smartphone like an iPhone or Android. Some are designed to take other cameras like GoPros. Here are some: DJI Osmo Mobile 3 (as seen in this video): https://amzn.to/3ywAx5z DJI OM 4: https://amzn.to/3mKtrYN DJI RSC 2 Pro Combo (as seen in this video): https://amzn.to/3yuVjCG Zhiyun Smooth Q3 Combo: https://amzn.to/3mICSYX If you want to see more then check out my website http://www.jargonfreehelp.com

Most people think you can only do a panorama photo on your iPhone or any other smartphone you think of using going left to right or right to left,. Panos can also be done top to bottom or vice versa. This is great for getting tall buildings or anything else that lends itself to a vertical pano. In the photo in this demo the sky looked amazing and I wanted to capture the clouds. However, you will see I went in a 180 degree arc and captured more than I bargained for. If you want to see more then check out my website http://www.jargonfreehelp.com

You can't take a photo with your Apple Watch but you can use it to control the camera on your iPhone. You can put the iPhone where you want and see the preview on your Apple Watch.
