Apple just launched a site to help you take better photos with your iPhone 7
Apple launched a new site Friday with 16 videos dedicated to teaching iPhone 7 owners how to take better photos.
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL)
has always marketed how great its phones are at taking photos, often
showing off shots snapped by professional photographers, but it hasn't
yet provided such useful and simple tutorials to users. The videos are
simple, allowing everyone to better understand what they can do with the
phones that are already in their pocket.
The
topics include "how to shoot a great portrait" and "how to shoot
without a flash," which can actually be difficult if you're taking
pictures in low light. Other tutorials teach you how to use functions
you might not have known existed on an iPhone — like how to snap a photo
while also filming, and how to set a selfie timer.
To
snap better photos from a unique angle, for example, Apple recommends
tilting the iPhone 7, looking straight up, or getting low on a subject
before snapping the picture. To shoot action photos, Apple says you
should hold the shutter button down, allowing it to shoot multiple
frames per second, and then view your gallery of burst photos and select
the favorite one.
The
videos are about 30 seconds each and walk users through each step,
making recommendations on how photographers might want to position
themselves, or the subject, and what functions to use on the iPhone 7.
The
tutorial page is useful, but it's also another indication that Apple
wants to continue to support the products its customers buy — something
its competitors have yet to do.
While the page is focused on the iPhone 7, owners of older iPhones should find plenty of value here, too.
