  1. Taking just a single shot is not the way to go while clicking smartphone photos in pro-mode. You can take 2-3 shots of the subject and later sort them by picking the best ones.

  2. No matter if the subject in the image is not in the middle of the frame or if you are not able to zoom in enough on the subject. Cropping the shot won’t harm anything. However, over-cropping would result in pixelation. You can even crop the images to bring the desired effect.

  3. This is one of the key factors for taking good shots. If the lens is covered with smudges, then even the most perfect shots with best filters and editing won’t give you the desired result. Users can keep a dust-removal cloth with them and wipe the lens before clicking.

  4. Whenever shooting, try to shoot by holding the smartphone with both the hands. This usually gives a better control over the resulting frames and reduces the chances to get a blurred image. Clicking images with one hand would bring more blurred shots, which might be visible on the small screen but can be clearly seen in large screen.

  5. Default settings are not everything. One should tinker with the settings and choose the best suited option. Users can tune the camera, its resolution, aspect ratio, brightness, contrast, ISO and more to get the best results.
