Despite the advanced technology, in order to get a picture of the "WAH" using a smartphone camera, should consider a few things about the basic techniques of photography and camera equipment.

Tips to take pictures with the camera smartphone

Using high quality mode
To get great results, notice the camera settings. Use the maximum image quality even drain a lot of memory because the size is so large.
Landscsape shooting position (horizontal)
Using a horizontal (landscape) would be better than the vertical (portrait).
Noting lighting

Composition 1/3 or 2/3
Using the composition of 1/3 or 2/3 parts so that the resulting picture frames clear.
Using additional software
Pictures of the shots would be better if the edited first using additional software that can be downloaded for free via the smartphone application market.



There is an outstanding gadget among the users that the greater number of their smartphone camera megapixels, the better the quality of images produced. This opinion is largely mistaken, because the issue megapixel digital cameras generally only determine how big the size of images that can be printed, and not determine the quality of the photo itself. In a smartphone camera, the photo quality is decisive outcome camera sensor.

Unfortunately, in practice, a smartphone with a small megapixel camera has a small sensor, so the image quality to be down. On Android smartphone, the camera is carried on average have 5 megapixel, many are already 8 megapixels. But it can still be found that only 3.2 megapixels.

Here are 10 (ten) tips produce quality photos with a small megapixel sensor:

1. Master the lighting
The basis of the art of photography is the art of capturing light. The better you master the lighting, the better picture you make. Notice where it came from, and how light rays touch the object. The camera sensor will react best when getting enough light and natural, so be sure to choose an outdoor shoot. Even if have to take pictures in low light indoors, be sure to use the help of lighting, but do not flash. Use indirect lighting such as flashlights or lamps studied.

2. Use the flash when bright
Not taboo to use flash if you know the right conditions for use. Powerful flash lamp when used under conditions that are less lighting will produce scattered light is not natural, because the temperature of the flash light is generally different from the situation room. Flash will be very useful when we take pictures when the sun is too bright or strong. Flash will provide details on the object.

3. Master the composition
Mastering lighting is as important as mastering composition. The composition is the way we put an object in the background and foreground. This will create dimension and a balanced impression of the photo. One-a common base composition is the rule of thirds. This rule is trying to put an object or a POI (point of interest) on a one-one of the four points of intersection that exists.

4. Use the maximum quality
Despite having a small megapixel sensor, there are times when the camera manufacturer's default setting is set to fine or normal option. The goal is to conserve memory space. Change the settings to high quality or super fine. Never sacrifice image quality for the sake of the memory space. An event will not be repeated again, that's why you only have a few opportunities to record with the best quality.

5. Turn off digital zoom
If necessary, let's just digital zoom feature does not exist in your camera. The workings of the digital zoom is to enlarge the pixels, not the camera focus to close the gap. That's why the results tend to be sharp, and the air-megapixel camera is small, the results will blur or even break. Better to use the crop function in the application editor editor in the computer or smartphone application. The process of cropping to make your photo smaller cut, not increase the pixel photos.

6. Steady
Due to the small sensor, the Android camera photos are very susceptible to blur the results. Entry level smartphone's camera is usually not accompanied by a stabilizer mode or even if there is sometimes too sensitive. So be sure to take pictures in a state of relaxed, calm, and stable position. Take advantage of the things around you as a tripod, such as a chair, leaning on a wall or a tree.

7. Do not edit first
Take as many pictures and edit later. Editing mebuat while taking pictures you do not concentrate on one only. Also do not just believe with your smartphone screen. Smartphone screen often does not show the original image. The only way is to look at it from the computer. Thus the decision to choose which photo is deleted or saved after we see the details on the computer screen. Also, keep in mind that not all the photos are blurry know it's ugly.

8. Maximize camera features
Although both use the Android OS, but the character of each different smartphone camera. Even in the same brand, but with a different type, the results are not necessarily the same. Then identify the first camera of your smartphone. Every entry-level smartphone has a shutter lag (time lag between pressing the shutter button with a picture terekamnya) different. In addition there are features that are also different. Some are complete and some are not. Most cameras have Android smartphone comes with metering settings, touch focus, ISO, while balance, and stabilizer. Identify each function and how to use it.

9. Use the application
Sometimes the features that I mentioned earlier there is no built-in camera on your smartphone, for that use third-party shooting applications. One of the best-equipped and fairly was app Camera360. Almost all of the features mentioned above is on Camera360. In addition there Vignette, Advance Camera, which also has its own uniqueness and advantages when taking photos.

10. Join Community

Also in the community anyway you can do with hunting. Currently, the Android community is the largest and most Photography Fotodroids.
