Why The Best Camera For Your Vacation
Most people want to take at least a few photos on their vacation, but not everyone wants the fuss of packing and keeping track of an extra piece of electronic equipment.
Have you considered leaving your digital camera at home and simply using the built-in camera on your smartphone?
Here are a few reasons why using your phone might be the best thing that ever happened to your vacation photos.
It’s Always with you. Always.
When you travel, your smartphone is likely already serving several purposes beyond just being a calling device. It’s a watch. A GPS. A weather-checker. An email and social media connector. A music library. It’s unlikely you go many places without it, and it’s second nature to just have it on hand.
Best Camera For Your Vacation
(If you’re like many people, the challenge of owning one of these devices is actually limiting how much time you spend on it.) How many times have you gone somewhere and accidentally left the camera in the hotel room or in the car? Using your phone can help ensure that you’ll have a great camera handy when those moments to remember come up.
It takes surprisingly high-quality photos.
Lots of people are shocked by this. Most phones now have a 10 or more megapixel (or higher) camera. That’s high-resolution enough to get a clear 20” x 24” print!
No messing around with memory cards or uploads to your computer. You always have the option, of course, to upload your photos at any time to your computer. But with your smartphone, you can also instantly upload images to Facebook, send them in an instant message, email them to yourself or others, or back them up on the Cloud. No cords or plugins are required.
Interesting apps galore can make your images look pro in no time.
Free apps like Instagram and Canva are used by millions of hobby and professional photographers every day. You can crop, add frames, apply filters, and share your photos right from the app itself, plus edited photos are automatically added to your phone’s photo library.
There are hundreds of photo editing applications available. You never know: you might be inspired to get more into photography through your mobile device than through an actual camera!
A cool photo finish.
In addition to being able to send any photo in your phone’s photo library to any camera shop or retailer (like Kmart or Officeworks) to be developed in regular 4×6 prints, photo books, canvas wall art, key rings, etc. Instagram’s unique square format makes for beautiful, artistic prints, too.
A 21st-Century take on the “wish you were here” postcard. You can send personalized postcards to friends and family in less than 30 seconds without stamps or trying to find a post office.
Postagram is a free app that lets you upload vacation images from Instagram, Facebook, or your phone’s photo library and then add a short personal note. You enter the recipient’s address, and voila! Postagram prints your photo and message on high-quality glossy paper and mails it directly to you. It is a fast, convenient, and personal way to keep in touch with those you love while you’re away.
Gone are the days of grainy, tiny images on small screens. Today, even those who consider themselves photo enthusiasts love the convenience and creative challenge of using their phones to capture their most treasured photographic moments. With all that your smartphone can do, maybe this is the year to take your vacation photography to new heights!
