Apple just released a dozen of videos<\/a> on its website (and some of them on YouTube) about the camera on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. At first I thought it would be a step-by-step three-minute tutorial explaining all the buttons in the Camera app. But it focuses more on hidden features and how to get the most out of your phone\u2019s camera.<\/p>\n

Named \u2018How to shoot on iPhone 7\u2019, the series shows real life examples of things you might want to do with your phone. The narrative is quite clear: according to Apple, you don\u2019t really need a dedicated camera if you have an iPhone 7 as you can do a ton of stuff with your phone already.<\/p>\n

The user interface of the camera app hasn\u2019t really changed over the last few years. It doesn\u2019t mean that Apple stopped adding features. Instead, you have to know what you\u2019re looking for because the power of the Camera app isn\u2019t really obvious.<\/p>\n

For instance, I forgot that you can take burst photos by keeping your finger on the shutter button. The videos also remind you that you can use the volume buttons to take pictures, or that you can lock auto focus and then manually change exposure.<\/p>\n
