The superiority of photography on Apple mobile phones is not in pixels, but through a variety of software to achieve a variety of functions. There are many photography software available for Apple phones. Of course, the most popular software is Hipstamatic. The software uses built-in camera properties to take pictures with different special effects and styles.

What kind of photos a mobile phone user takes with a mobile phone depends on his own wishes, and how to toss is his own business, not to others. Even uploading blogs, microblogs, and other online media, at most, is self-explanatory image transmission. However, in special cases, photos taken by mobile phones are used in the news, so there is a question of whether the mobile phone images are real or fake. Of course, this problem is not a random guess, because when taking photos with an Apple phone, you can control the depth of field or change the background effect; you can automatically frame and change the color ... the effect in the traditional dark room can be set before the photo is taken; The effects obtained by the powerful Photoshop image processing software can be easily realized on Apple software without requiring special training.

It is not surprising that the particularity of photos taken by Apple mobile phones has caused controversy over the authenticity of mobile news photos, as this has shaken the bottom line of authenticity of news photography. But photos taken with a mobile phone cannot be called news photos because they are suspected. In fact, among the winning pictures revealed at the 68th Annual Global Picture Awards, the photo of the Apple iPhone about the war in Afghanistan, taken by photographer Dimon Winter, won the third prize in newspaper stories. Naturally, this group of photos caused controversy after the award. Can the darkened corner photos taken with an Apple mobile phone be regarded as news photography? Can future news photography be continued in this way? Does digital photography adhere to the same standards. The controversy has been inconclusive so far. Proponents and opponents are equal, and no one can convince anyone. Among them, the most compromised solution is to add a special "mobile phone photography" in the future press photography selection to avoid unnecessary disputes and troubles.

Mobile photography is currently the world of the iPhone, and the hotspot of voice and discussion surrounds the iPhone, because the Apple mobile phone provides users with a lot of fun and easy-to-use software to maximize the camera function. Although other brands of mobile phones can have high pixels, photos It can be good, but the user base and fan group are not as strong as the Apple brand. Moreover, the work of Apple's mobile phones not only has a place in photography, but also the movies shot with Apple's mobile phones have become popular. At the 61st Berlin Film Festival, Korean director Park Chan-woo s iPhone short film "Brilliant" won the Golden Bear Award for Best Short prize.

The iPhone in the mobile phone industry, such as the Windows in the IT industry, can't shake but can only yield to submission. When Apple was in the middle of the sun, it wasn't just news photography that was bitten. Movie art was not immune.
