Smartphone

Smartphone cameras work using an automatic mode (in most cases). Nevertheless, almost each smartphone camera supports some specific features:

Format selection

Every smartphone has two different selection modes: Rectangle (in most cases in the relation 3:4) and square.

Hint: Instagram uses the square format as the best supported format.

Hint: Most DSLR cameras use the 3:2 rectangle format.

Camera Formats

Flash mode

All smartphone cameras support several flash modes:

  • No flash
    The flash is not used (switched off)
  • Automatic flash
    The camera decides (due to the available brightness) if the flash is used or not.
  • Flash always
    In this mode the flash is used with each taken picture
