You will find this feature in most of the smartphones’ cameras. We often try to take pictures of the things which just happens for a second such as fireworks, raindrops falling on leaves, etc. You will miss these shorts if you will just delay by one nanosecond here burst mode can help you. Whenever you want to click a photograph like this you should press and hold the shutter button (click button) on your camera it will continuously take shots for a couple of seconds and later on, you will be able to select the best short later.

#3. Avoid using optical zoom

Optical zoom is available in all the Android default camera apps. You can zoom in by pressing the volume up key or by using two figures (pinch zoom). Actually, you should avoid using optical zoom because it crops the image to the object you are zooming in and you cannot crop up if you find pixels are getting damaged. So it is always better to take the image without zooming in if you still want to enlarge a particular object you can crop the image once it is in your gallery.

#4. Use HDR Mode

In some of the latest smartphones with flash, you will find the automatic mode of HDR. HDR basically works when you are not able to see the original colors in the picture because you are shooting against the light. When HDR is turned on your smartphone camera it takes 3-4 different pictures of a single object with different light shifts in all and finally, combines all these images to give you the final image having much better color quality than the original image. So if you are shooting against the light you should make sure that HDR is turned on or on automatic mode. In some Android smartphones you can keep both the images HDR and normal so that in case you find the Normal image better you can go for it.

#5. Tap on the object if you are taking a close-up

From your smartphone, you can take a beautiful close-up of flowers and other objects. While taking a close up tap on the main object to focus on and you will get a beautifully detailed image.
