The simplest and basic principle about smartphone photography is the light factor. So walk towards light is the basic principle behind smartphone photography. This is because of the fact that a photo taken using a smartphone especially in dim light is always found to get the same result : a very bad image.
And because of the less power of accommodation or shortened zooming facility that a smartphone offers, generally pictures taken very far away are generally obtained in a poor condition. So to obtain good images, here are certain tips you may follow :
STEP 1 : CLEANING THE LENS OF YOUR CAMERA AT REGULAR INTERVALS
It is common that ,in the lens of your camera dust, finger prints etc can stick on. So it is important that you clean your lens at regular intervals. Cloth, tissue etc can be used for this purpose.
STEP 2 : AMOUNT OF LIGHT
The second important step is, as we mentioned in the introduction, the amount of light present during the time of taking the photo. If their is a good amount of light then their comes clarity along with it automatically. Sunlight will be more suited than any other source of light. The thing to be noted here is that light is not only to be present, but it should fall on the subject. Sunlight obtained during morning and evening time will be most suited for this purpose. If the photo is taken inside a building or any where else where less light is present then the windows can be open in order to allow more sunlight light to enter. Use flash if there is no another source of light, means using flash should be the least prioritised method that should be considered by you.
STEP 3 : AVOID THE USE OF DIGITAL ZOOM AS FAR AS POSSIBLE
Prevent the use of digital zoom as far as possible. Try to take the photo by going near the subject to the most possible extend.
STEP 4 : FOCUS LOCK
Touch the part of the image in the screen to obtain focus to that part. When you touch the screen a square shaped screen will appear. You can adjust the settings of this screen according to your will and situation.
STEP 5 : BURST MODE
If you adjust your camera to burst mode then it helps you to take different snaps of the same image. From these you can pick the desired image.
STEP 6 : HIGH RESOLUTION
According to the aspect ratio different resolutions can be obtained from the camera settings. Adjust it to the highest possible resolution. This will help you to highlight the desired part and crop the the image.
STEP 7 : FRAMING
Approach a subject from different angles. Compose each and every shot. Try understand the importance of foreground objects and their position. And also try to see the subject through different objects.
STEP 8 : HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE
High Dynamic Range or HDR mode will be present either in the camera settings or in apps. Many snaps of the same image is taken and they are joined together, and the best image is formed as a result.
STEP 9 : IMAGE STABILISATION
Image stabilisation helps to prevent shaking of an image and thereby avoiding the image to be blurred. So it is to be kept on always.
