Brother Glacius Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 So I'm a bit tired of using my phone for all of my mini pics. I miss having a solid camera in my hands. On the flip side of that, I don't want to go crazy throwing money at something I have to become an expert in just to get the most out of it. I need something simple but has options if I wish to explore those down the line. Anyone have recommendations? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 What phone app are you using - I have almost exclusively been using my phone (currently iPhone R) - and find that the right app makes a nice difference. That and decent lightning. -d 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted July 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I have a samsung galaxy S9? I think. I actually liked my LG's camera better...I'll have to look for a better app I suppose. But I'd still prefer an actual camera. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobynMM Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I keep having this same debate with myself. Go actual camera or stay with whatever phone I have. I upgrade my phones far more frequently and am also hesitant to take the dive into the world of knowledge needed to fully utilize a more professional camera. I did find that the right photo setup is just as important. A good light box will totally change your game with minimal investment. I definitely need to look into some apps, I keep reading up on them but never actually getting around to installing or using. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Trainer Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Making sure you're in Macro mode makes a huge difference. Then lighting and such. I liked Dan's portable studio which was a white background with ambient light. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
