Master your phone photography - 5 Ways You Can Improve Your Phone Photography
Check out my Zine: bit.ly/4cUo4hw
What's that saying? The best camera is the one you have with you! - Let's face it, phone cameras are fantastic now and they're always with us!
In this video we talk about how you can use your iPhone or Android camera to improve your photography, but also what mistakes not to make and how to improve the quality you get from your phone camera. This video features an iPhone but I'm sure these tips are available for any camera brand.
Thanks for watching

theres a “preserve settings” option in camera settings which should stop the camera resetting each time.

[@richardmay3551]

Adsolutely brilliant i love this video keep up the good work..

[@tTLM823]

Really excellent tips, Gareth! I have owned many iPhones through the years and found this the most informative explanation for using the camera ... thank you!

[@trevorsneath4665]

Thanks for this Gareth, it made me take a closer look at my Oppo phone. I was surprised 🙂

[@michaelj.1121]

Well explained - thanks for that. The brightness adjustment actually enabled some nice concert images, even with an iPhone 7+.

[@paulm8157]

Good tips and cool pics. Cable release shutter trip a fav. Can also use dedicated Bluetooth shutter release buttons, or (via accessibility) voice activation. Cheers!

[@marie-clarebyard8919]

Super tips, thank you so much!

[@GarethDanks]

You're so welcome!

[@SimonWestPhotography]

Some great tips here that I never knew I could do on my iPhone. Especially the long exposure. Cheers Gareth!

[@GarethDanks]

Cheers mate. 😁

[@davidpearce2981]

Nice tips there could of done with knowing this before 🤯

[@JVSwailesBoudicca]

Thanks so much for this, you never fail to come up trumps - this has shown me a lot. I just never have the time to spend on my camera or phone to find all these nuggets of info & I miss out on a lot. Had fun just trying all this out 👌👍

[@GarethDanks]

You're very welcome

[@Mark..P]

One of the most useful videos I have seen for a while. Thank you so much for making this 🙏

[@GarethDanks]

That’s very kind mate thank you

[@TimS-pg5pv]

Absolutely agree. This video might be a game changer for me. That long exposure with 'live' - wow!

[@darylneumann8636]

Some great tips. I have always used a camera and not a phone but your tips makes it so easy to use the phone camera when the usual is not available.

[@GarethDanks]

Cheers mate. Nice to know they’re actually usable now haha

[@Ricalex67]

Great video Gareth. I’ve only got a normal iPhone 15 but with 48mp I can overcome the crop issue. I’ll be taking it to London next Sunday for a 3 day solo photo shoot. I am wondering what case that is you have as I couldn’t see it listed. Also, it seems that with burst mode, the camera doesn’t focus for every shot, only the first which is a real bugbear.
Ps- great images and I especially loved the abstract car type shot.

[@Paul-ErikHansen]

Thanks for a great video!... it is worth noting that on ie. iPhone 15 Pro, you have 3 lenses (and on earlier Iphone Pro) BUT only when using X1 lens, you get the full 48 Mpixel, if you use 0.5X or 2X you will only get the old 12mpixel... also if you use "Portrait" mode on iPhone, you will only get 12mpixel..... and this is probably also for other mobile phones, just good knowledge if you buy iPhone because of the advertising of 48 mpixel :-)

Such a good teacher

[@rpapworthphotos]

Super useful video Gareth

[@GarethDanks]

Glad it was helpful! 😁

[@matadoruk]

Cracking video

[@stevepurvis8079]

Great explanation on the iPhone camera👍👍

[@GarethDanks]

Thanks mate. Appreciate that a lot

[@anthonyphotoman]

A great video Gareth, really useful even though I don't use an iPhone. Some similar controls with the android I use; {Samsung S23} especially the PRO setting. Thanks mate. All the best. Tony

[@GarethDanks]

Thanks mate. Really appreciate the feedback 😁

[@Si88888]

Valid point and well know fact that phones can produce great images, but some just prefer the tactile experience of using a dedicated camera

[@GarethDanks]

Yup. Nothing enjoyable about shooting with a phone. Just that it’s always with you. 😁

[@tonygreenwoodN10]

I thought I knew my iPhone camera!! Thanks for some great tips

[@GarethDanks]

Always learning dude 😁

[@TheSadButMadLad]

The touch and hold works on my Android Samsung S23 too. Useful. I didn't know that.

[@GarethDanks]

Glad to hear it. Would have been annoying if not 😁

[@neilcole3406]

Can you remember the name of that iPhone case Gareth please,thanks

[@justinhopkins8844]

Apple do a free course at there outlets actually got something out of it myself. Anyway thanks love watching when I get the time. For the odd bit of information that I do not know.

[@RichardOldroyd]

I sometimes have my phone on a tripod or balanced somewhere and have my Bluetooth headphones in my pocket and use them as a shutter release.

[@neilcole3406]

Isn’t strange how some camera company’s boast about pro capture! Apple iPhones have been doing it for years with live view!

[@AlbertoAcero]

It’s sad that you take photos of your kids in jpg and buildings in raw. 10~20 years from now you will regret that. May be a better advice is to take all of your pictures with the best quality you can, you never know when the “perfect” photo will appear

[@estwern]

I was shocked about this also….
