[QUOTE="Tarantulafeets, post: 196907, member: 36666"] I started out using the camera app that came on my phone, worked well for me and has many options. Cameras on phones and tablets these days are pretty good, but you can't really change aperture and iso and all that other stuff like on a traditional camera because it does it itself. (Which is the main reason why I got a traditional camera.) To maybe reduce the blur you can try using an additional light source, which (I think) will make your device make the shutter speed faster, reducing blur, also makes the object brighter if in a dark space. Here's an example of some blankets that I took right now with my phone: Without flashlight [ATTACH type="full"]57607[/ATTACH] With flashlight [ATTACH type="full"]57608[/ATTACH] A clip on macro lens can also help you focus closer to an object than your phone normally would, and there are many different options available. I used to use a xenvo clip on macro lens when I started out, and that company seems to make pretty good lenses right now. If you want to go the extra mile and edit your photos to make them better, I'd recommend snapseed, as it is free with no ads and has a lot of options. It might be confusing at first, but I eventually got the hang of it, and it really helps spice up the final product. I'm not a professional at all, just a hobbyist that likes to take pictures of my land octopi, so hopefully this helps, but take my words with a grain of salt. [/QUOTE]
