DigPhotog: Smart Phone Photography: From Still Images to Moving Images [VID] Fa14

Besides using your smartphone camera to take photographs (still images), you can also use your smartphone camera to take video (moving images).

Your smartphone or tablet apps are now taking advantage of this.  On Instagram, for example, you can now post 15 second videos along with your photographs.




Do note that when shooting video on your smart phone or tablet, the rules of composition still apply.  And now that you are adding more time and movement to the shooting of a subject, you can do some interesting things with the still photography rules of composition.

Note the four rules of composition discussed below.



Note also the techniques of getting a good hand-held video shot below.  The video below is about using a professional video camera, but the same techniques apply to you using your smart phone or tablet camera.

DigPhotog: Smart Phone Photography: Tips and Tricks [VID] (U9-P1) Sp14

Let's now focus specifically on smart phone photography. Note the several pieces of advice that are offered in the video below.



In the video above the tap feature was mentioned. A tap on the screen sets the focus and the exposure. In the video below they talk about an app that un-bundles this and allows you to set the focus and exposure separately. Why is that important?

In the video below, note also the helpful advice about using a smart phone to do street photography, especially the use of the earphones. Toward the end of the following video there is also some helpful advice on finding your photography style.  We've talked about the importance of finding your style previously.



In the video above, the ProCamera app is mentioned because it separates or "un-bundles" exposure and focus. However, ProCamera is only for the iPhone. For an app that separates focus and exposure and is also available on Android, see Camera 360 [Apple | Android].
