Photography when travelling

Your iphone, and even your ipad, now include superb cameras that will be able to capture the important moments on any trip. The convenience of being able to upload to social networks and do so much more with your images is a huge advantage, but you can take things even further with some apps and accessories.

1 A software camera

There are countless camera apps available for IOS of which Camera+ is just one example. Many will give you much more control over your photos as you take them.

2 Do something different

Why not try to take a different kind of snap? Slow Shutter can produce some stunning results once you have got used to how it works.

3 A better lens

Accessories like the olloclip let you add a better lens to your iphone which can create more detailed images. They are also ultra portable and will not get in the way.

4 The best locations

It is worth investing in an iphone tripod like the Manfrotto PIXI mini and other smaller accessories that can help you capture special places in all their glory.

5 A new camera?

A Gopro or a DSLR camera will potentially fit some parts of your trip better than the iphone, but for 99% of photos your phone alone should suffice.
