Learn how to get the most out of your smartphone’s camera capabilities

There is a saying among photographers: The best camera you have is the one you have with you. What that means, simply, is that the best equipment in the world won’t take a photo if you don’t have it available when the opportunity arises. Since those of us who carry smartphones would feel lost without them, and since both hardware and software of smartphone photography tools have improved dramatically in the last few years, iPhone photography is a very legitimate – and the fastest growing – segment of the photography hobby.

On Saturday, Sept. 17, from 9 to 11 a.m., in the Vaccaro-Myers Gallery of the Piqua campus, Edison Community College professor Brad Reed will offer a course in harnessing the power of smartphone photo technology. Participants will learn about some of the more popular apps for the iPhone and other iOS devices, as well as the Android smartphone platfrom.

The class is $40, and those interested can register though Edison’s Business & Industry Center by calling 937-778-7864.

In addition to the one-day course, Edison is also running a free public exhibit in the gallery of photos captured and edited using smartphone technology. The purpose of the exhibit is to demonstrate how artful photographs can be captured and processed using only the tools on a smartphone, in this case, an iPhone 4. The images in the exhibit were not manipulated with any tools other than those on available on the iPhone.

To find out more about the exhibit, take a tour and learn more about the process of smartphone photo technology, visit the project’s web site at http://iphonephotography.weebly.com
