taking a photo?

2012-10-17 Thread Rob Harris
Can I clarify...

You can use the top volume button as shutter button to take the snap?

Now that would be useful;  I get right flaky pictures double tapping on the 
screen button.

Hi there, I'm not Kawal, but when I was sighted, I was a professional
photographer.
To get a subject in the picture, you want it to be at a 90 degree angle from
the face of the camera or phone.
Hold the phone with two hands, the left near the up volume button (that will
take the picture), and the right hand on the right side of the phone. Try
pointing, with your right index finger at what you'd like to line up with.
When it's aligned, click the top volume button to take the picture.

Here's a note.
What will fit into the frame, or viewfinder, is about the same amount  of
distance you are away from the subject.  To get just the face and shoulders,
you should be alright about 3 feet (an armslength) from the subject. If you
want their full body in the picture, you will have to back up as far away
from them, as they are tall. Then back up a little more to give you a little
more space around the subject. Now aim at the middle ( their belly), and you
should be ready to take the shot

If you atried to take a full length shot and aimed at their face, the face
would be in the middle, a lot of space above their head, and their legs
would be cut off about the knees.

If you leave yourself a little extra space on all sides, the picture can be
cropped after it's taken. Cropping is cutting out just the area that you
want to keep. .


I hope this helps,

Thom

Hello Raul.

Please don't think it personal if I ask you if you have any vision and if
not, how did you teach your clients to do that?  Could you write the steps
to me off list?

Thank you.

Kawal.

 So, if this is something you are interested in, just know that it can
 be done.

That is correct. I had to do it again myself to make sure that they didn't
change this in IOS 6. lol.
