Book Description

Killer Photos with Your iPhone shows you how to take fantastic pictures using the camera built right into your iPhone. Because of its portability and unique capabilities, the iPhone camera is now one of the most popular digital cameras on the market, and this book shows you how to do everything from taking simple pictures to using apps to snap and create innovative images. You'll find information on the basics of shooting with an iPhone, including how to aim, compose, and focus your shots, as well as shooting within an app platform, and even post-processing. Many of the most popular photography apps are covered, and explained option-by-option with full-color images that allow you to see the progression of the app all at once instead of step-by-step. Covering both the 3G and 3GS iPhone models, this book will have you shooting, editing, and sharing killer photos in no time!
