iPhone photography

I just can't get over the picture quality. This is straight from the camera with no processing.

And now with a simple crop and saturation tweak.

Pretty incredible, especially considering what you got from the best phones just a few years ago.

I'd still like to hear more about your lens repair. Did you upgrade the existing lens with an aftermarket one? Or did you just do a straight swap for a stock apple iPhone 4 lens?

[Nanuq]

Straight swap for another stock apple iPhone 4 lens, Red. I undid the 2 little cross-head screws at the bottom, slid the back off, popped out the old/nasty and popped in the new/hotness.

Easy squeasy, 5 minutes including the time it took to scrounge up a teeny screwdriver.

One more! I can't get enough of this. Check out the tiny text reflection in the 10:00 lug and on the insert.

Amazing result! Well worth the 5 minutes and less than $5 cost!!

Nanuq, have tried the app "Zoom" for Iphone 4?

Someone like you that's already good with pictures might be able to really go nuts.

I'm just learning, but sometimes I get lucky I've been playing with Zoom for awhile and seem to get better macro's than I did without it.

Thanks Woof, that's very kind. And no, it WON'T get you a free month VIP with access to *that* subforum.

If any good pics come out of my camera, I'm telling you it's pure random dumb luck.

Wow! That is amazing. I have an iphone 4 too but could never manage to take pics like that. Is that the iphone 4s?

It's amazing what the iPhone camera can do. This pic I took with my D7000 and my 17-55 f/2.8 lens:

And this pic I took with my iPhone earlier today:

One thing I have learned playing with both a regular digittal camera and my Iphone...is outside daylight of some type is the single most important thing.

Unless you have some sort of high end light box of course. The best pictures have all been on my back patio with some form of natural light.

The second thing for my Iphone has been a tripod. I have a few different tripods and a couple different adapters that hold the phone.

I am a far cry off from being good at pictures compared to most of you, but those two things have enabled me to "get lucky" and get a nice pic sometimes.

Not sure why but close up pictures from my 4s suck....they are always blurry.....regular pictures look great though

i only use the iPhone camera lately, one of my favorite pics of my gen Breitling mop dial comes out great.
