How to take nice photos using the iPhone - @wikihard

Here are some tips and tricks to make the best possible photos with an iPhone (or iPad). Remember, the simplest are often the most effective.

How to take great photos with the iPhone

A clean lens

It's stupid but it makes a lot of damage on the photographs. Dust and other dirt should be avoided. A soft cloth will do.

Use both hands

 It's stupid too, but with both hands it is more stable and we will have a clearer picture.

 Forward instead of zoom

Zooming on iPhone and iPad is digital (for the moment), it is better to travel than to use it. The quality will be well preserved.

 Manual focus

 Before you take your shot, remember to press once on the screen to trigger the manual focus (on the iPhone 5s is automatic, but sometimes you need help).

 A leading

 To take a landscape photo, you better try to find a key to bring relief. An object or person will do and will give another dimension to your photo.

 Light instead of flash

If possible, ban flash and looking for the best angle to the sun in the back. The lights are much more loyal. Besides, if the sun is too far, the picture will not be optimal. Prefer clouds.

 In terms of subject

To take a nice picture, you have to have to be at the target subject. If it's a child, do not hesitate to crouch. Think about it!

The straight skyline

Another simple but effective advice. Keep the good horizontal skyline, you will have a pleasant result to watch, especially on the big screen.

A small filter to finish the job

After all this, it is possible to sublimate the image by applying a filter to switch to black and white, increase the contrast or add grain for example. Use it wisely.

Samsung pushing android 6.0 update for galaxy s6 and s6 edge

Samsung pushing android 6.0 update for galaxy s6 and s6 edge

Samsung Galaxy S6 - @wikihard

Android has always had an issue with providing timely updates, though things have improved marginally over the years. Nonetheless, many smartphone owners are left waiting for an update well after the new software is released. Today brings in a case of that with two of last year’s biggest phones, the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 edge, just now receiving their update to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which was released in November.

The update is rolling out to unlocked models of the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge now, with further announcements regarding specific carrier updates coming soon. Samsung has also said that other Galaxy series devices will begin to receive their Marshmallow updates in the near future.

While the updates include the usual Marshmallow features, such as Doze to improve battery life, Samsung has also packed in impressive new features for Galaxy S6 edge owners. Samsung has added new Edge Screen features to the update that include things like popular contacts, most-used apps, quick task shortcuts and a set of Quick Tools, such as a compass and ruler. These are all accessible by simply swiping in from the edge of the screen with the Edge handle, a fixed tab that users can place where it’s most convenient. The Edge tab will remain on the side of the display, regardless of what app you’re using, so you can always swipe in to open it up.

Additionally, the Edge tab will have a growing list of features, as Samsung has opened it up to developers to create widgets that make it even more useful.

Even though the update has taken its time to arrive, it will at least bring in some solid features for Galaxy S6 edge users. Let us know what you think of it when you receive the update!

iPhone 6s : Test the camera photo ( front and back )

iPhone 6s : Test the camera photo ( front, back and night )

What improvements to the performance of the new iSight sensor? The answer in our test photo of the iPhone 6S images.

Iphone 6s back camera - @wikihard

As we have seen in our previous test, the iPhone 6S Plus brings new compared to the iPhone 6 Plus. But what about the iPhone 6S compared to his older, hitherto a reference in the world of camera phones? That's what we'll check today. The new iPhone is a team iSight sensor of 12 megapixels, against 8 before. It features a backside illumination sensor (or BSI) in order to capture more light, but no optical image stabilization (Optical Image Stabilization OIS) like the iPhone 6S Plus.

Summary :

• Photos outdoors
• Indoor shots
• Night shots

iPhone 6s phones - @wikihard

Photos outdoors

Outside and in clear weather as cover, the iPhone 6S always known to produce very impressive shots. Beyond the high definition pictures, one finds a dive (details sharpness level) greater than on the iPhone 6 when it enlarges images. The colors are still as faithful, and rendering general is now a brighter hair. Digital zoom 6S is also quite effective, and does not alter the quality of the images when the camera is properly stabilized.

Indoor shots

As for outdoor photos, the changes are not obvious at first glance, is looking into the detail and / or enlarging the image that we realize improvements. It is the same for snapshots indoors, where the iPhone 6S always comes out as well. A slightly higher contrast than before gives more depth to the color, while staying true to reality. The sharpness is still important and the device handles perfectly ambient light, whether natural or artificial.

Night shots

Although it produces very satisfactory results in very low light, the iPhone 6S requires more maintenance than the more 6S during shooting. Indeed, the lack of optical image stabilization can be felt especially during night shots. Although the overall image quality is not affected (thank you to BSI sensor), the lack of OIS can cause motion blur and / or electronic noise when shooting one-handed example. For the rest, the subjects are clearly visible, as we have seen with the 6S Plus. The dive also remains impressive for such light conditions.
