so what is up guys
Nick here helping you to master your
technology how to use the iPhone 11
camera system here now you see a lot of
photos and samples and you know this is
a great camera so far and some people
wonder how you're getting such sharp
results how youtubers are getting these
results and I'm gonna share with you all
of that today now quick refresher 12
megapixel dual cameras on the rear but
with the 11 what's neat as Apple decided
to go with an ultra wide-angle on this
camera instead of the telephoto of pryor
dual camera iPhones now these are
capable up to 4k 60p recording which
many cameras aren't even capable of
doing although it's doing it on a much
tinier sensor you can see right here on
the front we do have a 12 megapixel you
can't really see it but we have a 12
megapixel hidden in there
and that does 4k 60 on the front as well
which is a big step up over prior
iPhones now the first thing I want to
talk about is how you access this camera
from the lockscreen now a lot of people
seem to forget this and I still see
people opening up their app open up
their phone going into the application
and you probably missed the moment by
then just quickly go ahead and swipe to
the right and get into your camera
that's the fastest way to not miss a
moment on this foam next up I've even
seen people tapping this and they're
like come on open up what's going on
here in this fast-paced world we seem to
forget that you have to haptic press
that camera to get in so those are the
way to access the camera very fast you
can also tell Siri open the camera and
Siri will open the camera all be it's
not the fastest option you can also say
take a selfie and it will open the
selfie camera for you so those are some
things of some ways to access it now for
me I like to keep the camera app itself
all the way down on the right so it's
easier for your thumb if you're a righty
to go ahead and find that camera an
apple also knows this that's why the
selfie to the rear camera option is
right there kind of where that dock is
down there on the right side now if
you're a lefty and you often
have your phone in the left hand I would
put it over there for faster access as
well but again that selfie camera button
is still gonna be on the right so you
still got to reach over for that but if
you're Lefty put it over there
not for me if I'm doing video I like to
keep the camera up here like higher up
because I'm typically attaching the rode
videomic l I'll leave a link to this
microphone this is probably the best
microphone you can get for the iPhone it
goes right into the Lightning port plug
it in right there but you can see with
the wind muff when you're outside that
this microphone is now blocking your
ability to touch the dock right there so
I do like to keep the camera up there
when doing video and using a microphone
attachment like this now if you're using
something like a lav Olear microphone
with just a dongle attachment then this
is not really a problem for you but for
that case I like to keep it right there
so if you're gonna use this camera
properly the first thing you want to
know is the settings in this camera so
let's go to those settings right here
now in preserve settings these are gonna
be the things that you don't want to
switch all the time so if you want to
preserve the last video mode you'll turn
on the camera mode right there rather
than resetting back to the original
photo mode every time you reopen the
camera now also you could turn on these
creative controls where it will use the
last filter you had the last aspect
ratio if you like to keep everything the
same way every time you want to use
these preserve settings a lot of people
will probably benefit from turning off
the live photo because sometimes it
takes live photos and you don't want to
take the live photo now one thing you
absolutely need to turn on if you want
to get the best results is the gridlines
so turn this on that's gonna allow you
in the camera to see the rules of thirds
so right here you're gonna see right
there you can frame your photos properly
when you turn on the grids' in it's not
gonna be necessary for people who don't
want the best results but if you're
watching this video you probably do want
the best results so use the gridlines
and frame your photos in the rules of
3rd if you want to know more about that
I'll leave a link down below where you
can learn about the rules of 3rd now
scan QR codes just gonna locate those QR
codes when you get a product or
something like that you just need to
scan it really quickly it'll just
automatically recognize it and record
video settings now for me I like to keep
things in 4k 60 every time I record
because I
this phone at 700 bucks I want the best
quality I can get out of this phone but
if you're trying to save the most space
and have pretty decent video I would
stick to ten eighty thirty but if you
want high quality video go to 4k thirty
if you want a super smooth feel stick
between 1080 60 and 4k 60 if you're
looking for a cinematic feel you're
gonna go to 4k at twenty four that's
like what they kind of do when they're
doing those cinematic slow movie like
feel you're gonna go to the twenty four
make it also lock the camera so it's not
switching between modes as well now what
does this record stereo sound well this
is gonna record a lot more of the
environment noise and the people in the
environment whereas if you turn this on
it kind of focuses more mono more on
your voice and what's closer to it so
it's going to be probably a little bit
tinny err I don't I don't like the audio
when the stereo sound is off it just
doesn't sound as good if you're not
using an external microphone if you use
an external microphone this doesn't
really matter anymore
a lot of people have problems with
compatibility issues especially if
you're using like Windows computer if
you're using a Windows computer I
recommend you go to most compatible
because a lot of these formats are only
gonna work with Apple stuff so if you're
working with Apple stuff leave it in
high efficiency but I would say if
you're working with other programs other
than apple programs you're gonna want to
use most compatible in addition if
you're just trying to save space on your
phone I would use the high efficiency
mode as well on the iPhone 11 now when
talking about composition you have the
ability to capture some data outside of
the frame on the iPhone 11 which will
allow you to crop out like the
wide-angle parts that you missed you'll
see it in an example soon you can also
do that same thing in the video capture
and you can auto apply these adjustments
just by toggling that on now here's the
thing these will go away after 30 days
so if you do plan on cropping your right
angle make sure you do that or you're
not gonna be able to after 30 days and
30 days might seem like a long time but
you might forget this if you haven't
went back to that photo in a while so
make sure you make your edits rather
quickly now smart HDR is where Apple is
combining different parts of the photos
separate exposures using the diffusion
all those things combined and you're
gonna have really sharp results with
proper balance of exposure and things
like that would out even happen to know
anything about that stuff so if you want
the crispiest results use the smart HDR
if you want a more natural photo you
want to tweak
pose to yourself I would probably turn
that off I think Apple does a great job
with this so I would just leave it on if
you're looking for the best results from
your iPhone camera so now that you have
mastered the settings let's see how we
use these settings here so we got the
rule of thirds going on there now you
can just tap the One X to go between the
ultra wide and the standard wide now one
thing people do a lot is they pinch to
zoom like this and to me that's a little
bit like easy to make the phone jiggle
get a blurry photo so what I like to do
is grip the phone nice and tight here on
both edges and then take this and use
the slider to go ahead and zoom it
allows you to stay a lot more stable and
get you a better result now for each one
of these lines you're going up point 1x
so you'll see right here point 1 point 2
point 3 and all the way all the way up
to 5x which is digital zoom so anything
past the 1x you're gonna start to create
a little bit more noise on the iPhone 11
because feeding past the 1x you're
basically cropping in it's a digital
zoom so you're not actually zooming with
an actual hardware lens which means that
the quality will suffer past the 1x at
26 mil so if you go backwards here
that's actually a hardware lens so you
should get pretty good quality out of
that photo right there okay so a lot of
people when they open up the iPhones
camera they just take a photo they don't
even focus but there is a way to focus
the exact object that you want to focus
on so you just tap anywhere on the
screen a lot of people knew this already
but one thing you may not have known is
that you can also lock the exposure on
this and focus here so just hold it down
until you see a eaf lock and that'll
pinpoint right on the thing you want to
focus now you can take your thumb and
raise the exposure or lower it right
there there's no way to do shadow
adjustment like you could do on the
pixel but still at the same time you can
change the exposure and get the right
photo now hold it steady just go ahead
and take the photo like that now in
addition you could go ahead and hold
down this to start making video lock it
to the right right there and that will
keep recording video this key right here
is the ability to take photos while in
this actual video so you can be
recording video and taking photos at the
same time but no longer you just hold
down to burst now you have to take it
left to start bursting which you could
see right there it'll keep going on the
phone
both those modes do work in the selfie
mode as well holding down to do video
lock the video take the photos and
bursting as well it works in both selfie
and the rear camera so for the best
results always tap to focus it will
always give you the cleanest shot and
will get the focus every time
although the iPhone does a good job at
just taking a photo without tapping the
focus most of the time if you're trying
to make sure that this photo you're
taking is going to come out properly
always do that now the ways to get to
you your modes like filters and things
like that have changed a little bit on
the iPhone 11 all you have to do is
swipe up anywhere on the screen and it
will bring those modes up and you could
see right here that you now have the
ability to change your flash right here
from flash auto on and off and then you
have your live photos right here you
could turn those off you also have
something new here which is the 16 by 9
aspect ratio which means that you can
now take YouTube thumbnails YouTube
videos in a way that a camera actually
could you couldn't do this before go to
4:3 that's gonna be your highest quality
photo or one to one which is your
Instagram photo right there now you do
have your timers right here up to 10
seconds and you guys kind of know how
this stuff works and there are your
filters so don't forget that on the
iPhone 11
you must swipe up to get to your filters
and things like that I've already had
people ask me where are the filters on
this camera and again the same features
apply to the front-facing camera when
accessing those modes now when in video
settings you should also note that with
the iowa's 13.2 Apple did include the
ability to change between the HD and 4k
on the iPhone 11 up here in the right
corner you just tap on them and you
could change between the frame rates as
well this is a very welcome addition as
you always had to go back into settings
and leave the camera before but that's
no longer true here now for the iPhone
11 but people say there's no way you're
getting this quality on the iPhone 11 on
some of my prior videos well you have to
keep in mind that there are studio
lights where I'm at you can see these
very bright lights and that's something
I want you to note you can see another
one right there I got three of them what
I want you to note is that and that's
what I want to know to get the absolute
professional best results you possibly
can on the
- 11 you're gonna want great lighting
for this camera it's a tiny sensor so
you need to pull in as much light as
possible it's not a huge sensor like you
know some cameras on the market have but
it does have a night mode that uses a
combination of software and long
exposure to give you a decent picture in
dark lighting and speaking of that night
mode let's go and activate it you can
see right up there we have that exposure
now down here you will see the night
mode it will only appear when it is dark
enough for the camera senses it's dark
enough you don't see it until then now
you can change up to max 10 seconds on
the exposure the more seconds you have
the more light you're gonna let in but
at the same time you're also going to
create more noise so less seconds less
noise more seconds more noise more light
though on more seconds so depending on
your situation play around with it and
see how much exposure you want to get
the longer - is the longer you're gonna
have to wait for that photo to finish
they'll keep in mind how shaky are your
hands what's the weather like is it
really cold are you able to hold that
phone steady for 10 seconds you might
need a tripod for something like this
typically around 3 seconds I think is
pretty decent at night time for people
to just hold your phone 3 seconds take
the photo ok guys so here in video do
keep in mind that if you do go wide on
this phone you are gonna reduce the
sharpness of the video the standard
wide-angle camera in here not the ultra
wide there's the regular One X is
actually a much sharper video than the
one that's on the ultra wide so keep
that in mind but if you want to have fun
then go ahead and use that ultra wide
but for sharper video keep it on the One
X so the next one is the slow motion
video now you can change between 120 and
240 FPS HD this doesn't do 4k but at the
same time if you want more slow motion
and keep it in to 240 FPS it's going to
give you the better results now if you
flip it over to the front you can also
see you can do 120 fps slow motion here
on the front camera as well now if you
swipe over to the right this is a
time-lapse this is where you're gonna
get that fast motion where it looks like
you're going through time on your camera
hold that down and make sure when you're
using this to use it for quite a few
minutes or it's just gonna look very
short if you do this for like a few
seconds the vid
just gonna go so fast it's gonna look
like you didn't record anything
basically okay guys so now we're in the
portrait mode and one difference between
the 10r and the Eleven is that you can
now do you object detection do portraits
with the objects now you'll see up in
the right-hand corner we do have the
ability to control our f stops and if
you don't know anything about what these
are just keep it simple and understand
this the lower you go down the more
background blur you're gonna get the
more you go up you're going to just keep
everything in focus so tweak it down to
get more blur and tweak it up to get
less blur so that's basically all you
need to know there and then you can blur
the background as best as possible on
people or objects you do have studio
light and all these modes like contour
light stage light height key light mono
and stage light mono are like added
effects to the portrait mode but for me
they kind of make the photo look a
little bit fake but if you guys do like
them they are there again this does
apply to the front-facing camera as well
you can do portraits this way and you
can change the F stops as well on the
front-facing camera and you have pretty
much the same modes on the front-facing
portrait as well
now one thing you can't do on the iPhone
is you can't blurb background and video
so do keep that in mind if you are
trying to let's say get better quality
video with background blur with the F
stops not possible here for the iPhone
just yet and lastly we have our panel
this is a traditional iPhone mode we all
kind of know how to do this you just
snap it and move it along the line and
it will create a wider angle photo up
here in the top left corner we do have
ourselves our flash and again up here in
the top right corner is our live photos
this little arrow pointing up just
signifies you can also pull up your
different modes down there and other
than that you basically have just
learned essentially everything you need
to know about the camera for me to get
the best results what I usually do is I
stick to the standard wide for
photography
it just has sharper results than the
ultra wide I go to ultra wide when I
want a funner looking photo but I don't
go to that for the highest quality
result now on the front-facing camera
what I typically do is now for the
front-facing camera and the rear camera
I typically leave them in 4k 64 the
highest
results and when doing portrait I
typically leave it in the standard
portrait mode just natural light I don't
really like those other modes they don't
they just kind of make the photos look a
little bit fake and over here in photo
mode I just let the smart HDR and
everything do its job now when taking
videos if you're gonna make videos for
YouTube always record them in landscape
it looks more professional in addition
if you're gonna do them on Instagram
you're always gonna want to record into
the portrait mode and last thing I
should mention is that you can use the
volume rocker to go ahead and start
recording and stop recording same with
the bottom one you can use either one of
those to go ahead and trigger recording
or photography and to not use a flash
unless it's absolutely necessary you
have night mode now on this phone so you
shouldn't always need that and when
you're in daylight you don't need the
flash it just kind of doesn't seem to be
necessary for taking photos a lot of the
time and also keep in mind that you can
go wide here on this front-facing camera
now if you want to get more people in
your frame so keep these things in mind
always use an external microphone I'll
leave a link to this one down below it's
probably the best value in iphone
microphones right now if you want to get
great video you can also use a dongle on
a level ear to get decent audio as well
that's a little bit closer to your mouth
now when taking photos if you want the
best photo quality always use a tripod
of some sort or a gorilla pod something
that you can go ahead and touch the
iPhone to that will stabilize the shot
now if you want even smoother video get
a gimbal I'll leave a link to this
gorilla pod it's an awesome gorilla pod
by Joe B and also if you're using a
regular gorilla pod or a tripod you're
gonna need something to attach the phone
to gimbals come with a phone attachment
and some tripods do include these with
the purchase so do keep that in mind
make sure you're paying attention or you
might just buy this separate and not
need it but if you get one with this hot
shoe on the top you can attach things
like lights to get you better you know
lighting and nighttime if you're doing
nighttime video you can attach things
like extra external microphones that'll
go into you the dongle if you would like
so I will leave a link to this one as
well down below this is a great little
tool to add to your tripod to get better
footage from your iPhone 11 I use it
basically every time I make an iPhone 11
video so we're a little bit higher up
here now and you can see that plenty of
lighting so there's stuff too
showing on the outside of the frame here
that you cannot get in the photo itself
this is that photos to capture outside
the frame now when you do go ahead and
click in the gallery view if we go ahead
and hit edit on this photo we're gonna
go over here to the crop button and
you're gonna see there's actually more
information in that photo so that's how
you can kind of crop out but again this
only seems to work when you have a lot
of lighting this will also work in video
mode as well but that's basically photos
outside the frame it's a great option
but make sure that you do edit these out
before 30 days so that is it for the
iPhone 11 how to use it I mean if you
guys were taking notes paying attention
after this video you're gonna know now
how to get the absolute best results out
of the iPhone 11 and how to use this
phone to the best of its abilities and
keep in mind this still has a battery
inside of it so you're gonna have to
make sure you have a full charge if
you're gonna be running all day doing a
lot of video work or a lot of photo work
make sure you bring an external battery
pack because although it has great
battery life still the camera is one of
the biggest trainers on any phone if you
