How to take a quality pic on an iPhone? - 1

My pics come out great, I just point and click

Make sure you have good light, keep the camera steady, don't use flash, and don't use the camera's zoom (it's not real zoom and only decreases picture quality. If you follow these instructions, an iPhone (4s and above) takes pretty decent photographs).

Mind the light.

Depends what you mean by a "quality pic". All phone cameras have physically tiny sensors (even if lots of megapixels) and thus are on the edge (or below the edge) for quality image files - note that serious photographers do not use phone cameras.

And note that, whatever camera you are using, your experience and artistic judgement as a photographer are what count in trying to impress people with your photos.

Allowances are made for iPhone cameras, kind of like Lomography.

Make it focus on the subject; eyes in a portrait. Make it meter correctly. Make sure you're not blowing out important highlights or getting jet-black shadows in an interestingly composed picture based upon having the main point of interest located at one of the intersection lines on the Rule of Two Thirds Grid.

Whenever I try to get video editing apps it always says error & only with that particular video. I have an iPhone 5c, and so does my friend.
  • Why do old cameras have awful pic quality although the MP is higher then my phone? So I have an old compact camera with 12.1 MP, which i got around 2010 or 2011. I recently got a charger to charge my old camera to try out cuz I thought it would have a better quality then my iPhone 7 Plus (12MP). But when I tried taking pictures with my old camera it looks like it only have 1MP. I'm so confused because the MP are the same yet the photo quality has such big difference. Any idea why?
