7 έξυπνα κόλπα για να απογειώσουμε τις φωτογραφικές μας λήψεις μέσω του iPhone:
If you own a smartphone (and we know you do), and you were wondering what fun tools......
you can add to your arsenal of fun things to do, the folks at COOPH teamed up with Lorenz Holder and have some great ideas for you.
I would probably catalog most of those in the novelty compartment of my toolbox, yet they are a great collection of fun things to try:
1. Multiple you panorama
Most software allows you to take a panorama shot, the trick here is to have a model run couter-panorama wise and post at various stages of the panorama. This will crate the appearance of them being present at multiple places at once. If you do end up making one, tag it #panodash. Here is a short clip that explains it:
2. The Drive By Panorama
Instead of moving the camera around to create a 360 degrees panorama, you can do a parallel panorama by keeping the camera at a steady position while driving. This creates a different panorama altogether.

3. The Binocular Zoom Lens
While you can probably get a zoom lens off of amazon for less then $10, you may already have such a lens at home if you own a pair of field binoculars. Or even a pair of kids binoculars. Jsut attach them to the lens and you got instant insanity purple fringed lomo-like zoom lens.
4. Droplet Macro
If you don’t have a DVD available for sacrificing a macro lens, you can simply apply a small drop of water on the smarphone lens to get it to shoot macro. The curved drop will act as a macro filter. Be careful not to get water anywhere else in your phone.
5. Use a car shade as a reflector
This is a hack we talked about a lot when DIYP was younger, but we never discussed applying it to smartphonography. The idea is to get some cool reflections on the cheap by using a car sun reflective sun shade. The idea is that a little bit of reflected light can either open up the shadows or provide a hard light look, depending on how oyu use it. That’s another $10 well spent on Amazon, or you can probably get ti for a buck in your neighborhood Dollar Store.
6. Use headphones as shutter release
If you need to get some distance from your phone for a self portrait, you can actually use your headphone as a shutter release. And if you are looking for a small tripod you can try this credit card tripod design here, or any of those nifty, albeit more complex, designs.
7. Underwater cup case
This one is a bit risky for my taste, but you can snap an shallow under water photo by placing a phone in a cup and using the cup for water protection.
What are you waiting for, go shoot something.
