How good is iPhone 4S Camera?

Here is my question to the forum:
Can the 4S Camera with a good application (Like Camera+) substitute, when traveling, a Digital Camera? Assuming that you have a good video camera.
Thanks,
Amnon

I love it and I am a professional photographer...but yes it is limited as stated above.
But taken in context as just a phone with a camera it's good. Better than a lot of compact cameras.
Check out my blog, I have posted a few pix taken with the 4s.

    How come my iphone 3gs camera takes pix even w/o me pressing the "shutter button"? this doesn't happen everytime tho. just there are times when it does.
    could my iphone be defective?

    Hi,
    sorry, I really don´t understand what you mean. - Can you please explain
    in an other way?
    Does the shutter button on the screen work sometimes and sometimes not?

  • My pictures are good quality when I take them with my iPhone 4 camera bit when I send them via mms or post on Facebook they loose a lot of quality. How can I fix this problem?

    When I take photos whit my IPhone 4 camera the pictures look great but recently when I send pictures to friends or try posting them on Facebook the photos loose their quality dramatically and the ones that I sent all look blurry and bad compared tothe original. Please somebody help! I always take pictures with my iPhone and send or post them and this problem is restricting me a lit. Thanks for your help :)

    when I could open iPhoto the library had tripled... photos from years ago from my iPhone and iPhoto had somehow come back onto it (even though I deleted them), the "faces" files had turned into their own photos, photos tripled (some smaller versions some bigger), and loads of random clip art and images I had never seen was on it. There was over 40,000 photos. It was so weird
    Nothing weird. That happens when you import one iPhoto Library into another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
    As for deletions:
    Drag the image from the Event to the iPhoto Trash. Empty it. Then Empty the System Trash. That removes it from the hard disk.
    If that has failed in the past it was due to the Library being corrupted.

  • IPhone 3GS - Seriously - How Good?

    Ok, had a Nokia N97, and if I had any hair, it would have been all pulled out at this stage. Terrible terrible handset, no support from the retailer ( here in Saudi ) and jaw droppingly shocking Customer care from Nokia.
    Please don't be offended when I say this, but this an Apple Forum so naturally expect some bias towards the company. I am an Apple fan too, and have had several Mac computers and laptops, currently running a 13" Mac BOok Pro, Snow Leopard.
    But I would a truly objective view from iPhone users on the phone. How good is it really?
    Things I would use it for?
    Phone calls. Obvious I know, but my N97 could not handle calls without freezing / locking.
    Interent - Joikuspot usage.
    Texting - how good it is the virtual on screen phone.
    Stability -
    Pics.
    Calendar ( and of course seamless syncing with my MBP.
    Thanks in advance.
    BTW, the the iPhones here in Saudi are sold unlocked, but a lot more pricey than in the UK / Europe / USA.

    Seriously?! OK
    I am Windows Mobile user for years. Recently I needed an upgrade. The market is full with excellent hardware and I needed a phone with keyboard as I use that a lot. While the hardware is good WM did not catch up with the technology. Nokia do not impress me at all (bad experience with N80 and N85), or any other phone.
    I went to O2 and they let me play with the iphone and I liked it. Also, in the UK (don't know anywhere else) I have 14 days to return it back for full refund (other than the warranty) and no questions asked.
    I was impressed with how sleek, simple and fast the UI on iphone 3Gs is. As for the virtual keyboard I got used to it very fast and I can type as fast as on a hardware keyboard (not to mention the phone is slim cause of it).
    The second important thing is the update I get from Apple. No longer I am at the mercy of my provider or manufacturer. There are a lot more powerful hardware than the Iphone but they are let down by an outdated OS.
    I had it now for about 2 months. Not a hitch. Everything just works. Fantastic speed on WiFi. I recharge it once a day (with 30% left over). I use the internet heavily, with occasional (but daily) Youtube, movies and music.
    GPS is brilliant and never let me down and it grabs a signal very fast than any other phone I have used before. Faster than my dedicated TomTom software and hardware.
    Bluetooth works just fine with my car BT kit.
    Camera ... Don't care
    As a phone it is crystal clear and I always have good signal and latches well when there is a weak signal and even when there is 1 bar I can still make crystal clear calls.
    Text wise, no complaint. once you get used to the keyboard it is child play.
    It never let me down stability wise. I am not in an office, I work in the field and I need it to work really good to communicate with colleagues.
    I have over 56 apps with about 5 games applications and I am heavy on documents and pdf files which I keep on the phone (as references).
    I never ever had to reset the phone so far.
    I use WiFi a lot, with O2 i get the BT openzone and the cloud networks for free (not all of them but a lot) and works extremely well.
    I am a news freak, and I have 10 apps for news and football and I read them all daily. Plus my facebook update and blogging update right from the phone.
    I use it with geocaching and it is great fun if you have the time. The compass is brilliant here.
    it fits well in my hand, slim, sleek and very responsive.
    I use Windows Vista 32 bit and outlook email client and never had problems synchronizing with them.
    I backup once a day (everything) with itunes.
    I also manually backup the itunes folder (just in case). All my purchases (except music) are made from the phone itself.
    The phone came with 3.1.1 firmware already in it and I only updated it once (as soon as I got it) to 3.1.2.
    It does not like synching with other phones (did not investigate as no big deal for me) using BT but great with the car kit (4 years old).
    it is not cluttered with buttons and I like that.
    I wish it can multitask as not all application get you back to where you left off last time you used it.
    I also wish it had a Radio, HSPDA or HSUPA. But no big deal and I am doing fine without them.
    I have 6 emails with push or poll, BT always on and so is wifi. I come home with about 30% left and do not recharge till 10 pm, I take it off around midnight. I use it as my alarm clock (**** very loud and I need it ).
    it gathers a lot of finger prints - non issue to me and I like polishing it
    Hope this helps.

  • How to delete iPhone camera roll's photos in new version Photos for Mac

    Hi,
    Before upgrade to new version Photos for Mac. I was using iPhoto + Photo Stream to manage all the photos took from my iPhone.
    Photo Stream will upload all new photos to iPhoto; when I connect iPhone to my mac, I can use iPhoto to delete my iPhone's camera roll's photos to clear the storage space.
    After I upgraded to Photos; the Photo Stream still running well, all new photos also upload to Photos' library, however, when I connect iPhone to my mac.
    Photos doesn't offer me any method to delete my iPhone camera roll's photos.
    What I can find is "Import Selected" or "Import All" and "Delete items after import" these functions are doesn't help.
    Because, all the photos are already imported by Photo Stream, when I click "Import All", all the imported photos will "RE-IMPORT" again and the photos will duplicate in my library.
    This is also a BUGS in Photos because in old version iPhoto when I import a photo which has already imported before, the software will pop-up a Dialogue Box to ask me options to choose between "Skip" or "Overwrite" or "Duplicate".
    Do anyone know how to delete the iPhone camera roll's photos by using new version Photos?
    Thank you very much.

  • Lost iPhone - how good is the PIN protection?

    My iPhone was recently stolen and I'm concerned about the data that I had on it. The phone was PIN protected. How good is this PIN protection? Is it possible someone can recover the data from the phone without knowing the PIN?
    Given in the UK if a phone is stolen its completely useless since the IMEI is blocked on all networks, I assume that it can still be used in an ipod touch type fashion? Is that so?

    In regards to the iPhone's passode lock feature, if someone knows what they are doing and has the proper tools/utility, an assigned passcode lock can be bypassed - just as if someone wants to break in to your house or vehicle that is locked - where there is a will, there is a way.
    Doubtful whoever stole your iPhone is interested in your data. If you had the erase data feature enabled, which completely erases the iPhone after 10 failed passcode attempts, you are covered there.

  • How to access iPhone "Camera Roll" by API?

    I would like to know how to access to "Camera Roll" by iPhone API.
    Because, I know several iPhone application which has own image list and the list is synced to "Camera Roll".
    If I take photo by iPhone native camera, the taken photo is listed up on the image list so I guess those applications can access to "Camera Roll" directly.

    Hello,while taking photos in iphone 5 camera spots(as dark dots) are emerged  ,how can i overcome this problem?
    But only in back camera this happens

    Not sure what your warranty status is, or if you have already seen the other threads that talk about these purple spots, but this is beginning to look like a widespread problem that Apple is probably refusing to acknowledge. For instance:

    does anyone know how to delete songs that came with the iPhone 6 in the music?? i tried deleting them from iTunes but i couldn't.

    I know you already solved this but for future reference, there is also another setting to only keep songs downloaded to your device visible in music.
    Go to Settings --> Music --> Show All Music and make sure it is turned off
