5 Night Mode Photography Hacks for the iPhone 11: Tips and Tricks By SANDMARC

Hey, what's up, it's Emiliano from Samar we've been getting a lot of questions about how to shoot at night photography. So we thought in today's video. We would give you guys five awesome hacks, so you guys can use in your next I phone 11 night photography journeys before we get into the hex. We're going to go over a few specs on the cameras, so the first camera we have is the ultra-wide at 13 millimeters F 2.8, without image stabilization. The next camera is the wide camera at 26, millimeters, F, 1.8 and with image stabilization. An important thing to know is the Y.

Camera is the only camera that you can use with night mode. So now that we know we're working with, let's get into the tags, the first hack I'm going to show you guys is actually really simple and easy. It's a long exposure effect within the camera app. So what we're going to do is hit the live icon here to take a live photo, it's actually off. Okay, so live is on now.

So come with me. This way closer I'm going to get a shot. I think this looks really sweet right here with, like the city that same you go downtown to me, to go kind of like a low shot here and wait till some wave guess where there was like so many waves coming just like okay. Would you try to you so the next thing we'll do? Are you have your life photo here? You swipe up. You have these effects.

Furthermore, you have live looped, bounce and logging closure. The next hack I'm going to show you guys, I'll, be explaining in the car because we're over the freeway on a bridge to capture the cars on the highway, and it's pretty loud out there, so I want you guys to be able to understand and hear me so to get this. This effect we're going to do is activating night mode while we have daylight. So to do that, we are going to use this ND, scale, 1:28, and I'm. Sorry I dropped it we're going to put it on the iPhone just like this, and as you can see, we have night mode.

So if you take it off night mode disappear to actually let me roll down the window really quick, because it's tinted so things that is darker. So as you can see, the ND are the night mode disappeared and, as we put it back on, you can see we have night mode activated. So let me show you guys how this effect works, because it's actually really cool, and it's probably one of my favorite hex this next hack I'm, going to show you guys is gonna, be really helpful for when you want to get those awesome night, photography shots with the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro we're giving the option to use a mode called night mode, and I'm going to show you guys exactly how to turn that out. So what you want to do is base your camera towards the subject and swipe up, and you see, there's a moon icon here. This icon will only pop up when it's nighttime or when it's dark enough, so you go ahead and hit that, and it brings up the exposure time so right now it says off spot if you slide it to the middle.

It goes to auto and then, if you hit it slide it one more time, it goes to max the max exposure time. So we're going to take a few shots and show you guys how this setting works. So I got some really cool shots with this night mode. The one thing you want to know is that you want to be really steady or gonna tripod, but since the wide camera has image stabilization, you should be fine which I used it handheld, but just make sure that you're as steady as possible, because any movement will cause your photos to be a little blurry like I said earlier. If you want to use the ultra-wide camera, you won't be able to use night mode, so my next hack is to use the wide-angle lens from San Marc.

So what we're going to do is actually going to show you first. So we have the wide camera and, as you can see, we have the moon icon. So that's night mode when we switch over to ultra-wide that disappears, so we're not able to use it. But what we can do is just add this lens on, and we have a wide-angle lens, and we can use night mode. The last hack I'm going to show you guys is probably one of the most popular night in photography tricks, which is light painting.

So this is a really fun tag. It's you can get really creative with it when going about this hack. The first thing you want to do is wait until it gets dark, you can either go outside or view this within your own home and turn off all the lights like I'll be doing today. The second thing is: putting your phone on a tripod and putting in night mode, I say to put your phone on a tripod, because we are given the option to have a 30-second exposure time. If we're trying to do a handheld, we only get 10 seconds, and it doesn't work all that great.

So instead we're going to take advantage of the 30-second exposure time and do it that way. Let me show you guys what I meant by having your phone on a tripod or doing a handheld. As you can see here, we have 10 seconds at the bottom, so it says max 10 seconds, the second we put it down on the table. We are given 30 seconds. So that's what we want to take advantage of, and now let me show you guys how we can do this.

Okay, if you're not familiar with light painting I might have forgotten to mention that you'll need a source of light. So, like a flashlight, you can just use your iPhone, that's what I'll be using, and then I have the phone set up on this tripod. Just like this, so I'll go ahead and set it up and show you guys what it'll look like, so we'll just put it just like this, let me open the camera, so we'll put it just like this and then once it's completely dark I'll be able to set the exposure time at 30, hit the shutter and then start painting I'll show you guys how that works, and that's how you shoot light painting on the iPhone 11 using night moments, a lot of fun, showing you guys these five packs. Now it's your turn to go out. There shoot some awesome photos using this heck.

You guys have any questions. Please leave them in the comments below, and I'll see you guys in the next video.
