6 iPhone Camera Tips Every User Should Know

Mirroring Selfies is terrible advice. When letters/numbers are backwards in a photo it looks ridiculous.

Agreed! Just because "most third-party social media apps" do it wrong, does not mean that you should follow that lead.

But then again, "most third-party social media apps" prefer vertical video… yuck!

Maybe I'm just an old man? 👴 Get off my lawn, and don't mirror your selfies! 😜

Hum, nope. Just tried it on my 15 Pro and it goes straight to video just like holding the shutter button does.

You need to set it up in Settings > Camera > Use Volume Up for Burst

Burst photos useless to me because I find really hard to take photos with the volume button with one hand .
I really hope Apple changes that shutter button soon.

To use Volume Up to trigger burst mode, enable it in Settings (as seen in the screenshot for tip #1)

Tried to help them up with reporting this so they could update it, and was simply told I pressed the wrong button :lol:

EDIT: Well now its fixed.

Don’t forget in the settings app, camera, preserve settings, live photo.
That way every photo you take is not a live photo that eats up storage.

Back in the iPhone 11 days, I've read somewhere that turning on "View outside the frame" would turn off the Deep Fusion feature. Is it still happening in the iPhone 15 with, now called, Photonic Engine?

A self photo that looks like what you see when you look at yourself in the mirror is so android...

iOS version and iPhone models should have been mentioned because not everyone who reads the article have the same model or using the same iOS version as what was used in the article...

Go into camera settings to turn it on.

Go into camera settings to turn it on.

Of course, there’s always the default option for burst mode. Slide the white Shutter button to the left (in Portrait mode) or up/down in landscape mode (depending on which way you turn your iPhone). It’s explained here:

Capture action shots with Burst mode on your iPhone camera

Use Burst mode on your iPhone camera to take multiple high-speed photos so that you have a range of photos to choose from when capturing a moving subject.

it was called "capture outside the frame"
and got removed in next update
probably because of deep fusion

was a wonderful feature
it allowed expanding main camera photo with image from ultra wide when editing

Also if you want to bypass the over-processing, burst is the way.

I just wish burst would let you pre-set how many images you wanted it to take instead of holding it down. I end up with more options than I want, which is awful for an indecisive person like me.
