PHOTO TIP: SMART PHONE PANOS & QUALITY VIDEO — Don’t be afraid to use a smart phone to capture something wide like this. A typical panoramic file from a smartphone is 18 MB and plenty large to print. I have printed a 16×24 inch image from a pano file I captured with my iPhone 7plus. Each new generation of phones brings us new features and higher quality. In the foreseeable future, we will be able to do most professional photography tasks with a smartphone. So it pays off to practice getting greats shots with a smartphone. I used my iphone to capture 4K video interviews all through Europe on this enlighten tour. The main problem with this is the audio quality. So to solve that issue, I purchased this Boya lavalier microphone for $18 on Amazon that delivers incredible, sharp audio while shooting video.
