Snapping Clean LEGO Pictures on Mobile

In response to seeing several MOC builders on Discord asking for ways to better present their LEGO creations, I thought I'd show a simple and easy workflow with great results, that you can do with nothing but your phone and 5 bucks for a cardstock sheet.

Very nice Jakob! Appreciate this video, definitely gave me some more good advice fore shooting on a phone camera.

[@Gecko_builds]

Great video! Don’t have a camera so this is really helpful :D

[@BrickReady]

Awesome tutorial! 👍🔥👌

[@hazbazbricks]

Very helpful, thanks!

[@JakobKaiserMOCs]

Glad to hear that!

Jakob, this is very helpful! Although I use cameras personally, this tutorial is very suitable for who don’t have any cameras or can’t afford them. I didn’t know that “contrast” on phone can be tuned in different colours and ISO on phone?! Those are some brilliant features.

Thanks, Adwin! I use mirrorless cams as well, but like you said, not everyone has a camera and I wanted to show that you don't need one to produce solid results.
Edit: About the phone settings, I use a Sony phone, which are known to have great manual camera controls. Not every phone gives you that flexibility though, hence why I used only exposure and white balance, which every phone should have and put apps in the desc in case peeps don't have the editing features.
