Excellent tutorial for me having just bought the iPhone 12 mini. Thinking I knew how to use an iPhone camera, boy was I wrong. So many features and settings I never knew about or used to produce great photos. Easy to follow and easy to listen to.
The outside the frame setting is basically the phone takes a wide angle pic even if you cannot see it on screen. This means that if something was missed you can get it back when editing. Basically being able to expand the pic in editing to stuff that was outside the screen viewfinder you was viewing. A great feature. Brilliant video.
@@DHTV I’ve solved it but it’s not good. The wide angle lens shows the outside the frame pic - darkened out - but since iOS 13 it doesn’t record the extra bit. I didn’t know it was removed as a function until I tried it on my 12 mini. It worked with my 11 pro 😢 It’s now just to help with composition. Turn it off and you don’t see the faded bit outside the frame. A bit pointless really. Thanks for the great video. Learned loads my friend.
Really excellent tutorial. Had the phone for ages and never knew half of those features existed. Cant wait to try them out. Thank you so much! have subscribed.
Thanks for the tips. I think ‘View Outside the Frame’ is just so you can see what you might be missing from your shot. You might want to capture something outside the frame that you’ve missed. Or you may decide that your shot would simply look better/more artistic, if you framed it a little wider. In short, it’s a composition aid.
Yeah seems like that's what it is, just weird if it's able to show us that, why not just capture it and let us edit the outer edges back in. I really thought that's how it was demonstrated once.
@@DHTV I think exactly the same thing. Why isn't the photo preview same size as screen, that you edit after etc. To be quite honest I'm still completely puzzled re this.
No problem glad you liked it. I have many iPhone 12 videos on my channel if you are looking to learn more. Most iPhone 12/12 pro videos will work with the mini too.
Hello Dan thank you for sharing.. I definitely sharing this as some friends who bought this .. great tutorial and tips too 👍🏻 take care and keep safe 😷👍🏻
Fantastically helpful video & thank you for going at a reasonable pace to allow us to try everything as you explain. Sadly apply doesn’t give people a dictionary function like my canon 7D 2 does. It’s crazy helpful for us technologically challenged people. It gives an explanation or description for most settings so you actually know what it does. If a camera can do this why can’t a basic mini computer like our iPhone do it? Apple if you read this you should know not everyone speaks geek. Thankfully there’s many people on RUclips willing to put in the time to help us.
Great video, Ihave only just bought a Iphone, but I have always never been able to take a picture unless its blurred lol, this was really helpful and understanding whats what
Hey let me tell you that at last where you were confused was like if you're taking pictures normally it gives you an idea of ultrawide view of your photo
As a new owner of iPhone 12 Mini - fantastic and comprehensive session. One question: if I shoot a regular video, can I use the edit feature to make it play back as if originally recorded in Time-Lapse setting?
Thanks glad it was useful. Yes you can edit to create a time lapse but you would need an editing app that can do that or transfer to a computer and use editing software. The regular photo app editor won’t do this.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for making this video! The information was clear, concise, and the examples were helpful. The timestamps-the best part. It allowed me to find the information I was looking for and move through your video with ease.
Hey, I covered the MagSafe chargers by apple in a previous video. I also have a few videos on various wireless chargers. I don’t have any plans on more videos however if something interesting comes out I’ll try to cover it.
Or to get to the camera u can look at the lock screen and swipe right to left. 😲😳🙄😊. Pretty easy. Better the. Waiting pausing then pressing the camera icon from the Lock Screen .... btw
That's really tough. No real settings I could think of but if the night mode doesn't help, try lowering it or raising it to see which would benefit more.
Thank you so very much, Dan, for this awesome tutorial!!! I have a 12 Mini and never realized how many photo and video options were available to me. Thank you again!!!!
HELP PLEASE how to low down the exposure ?? I make my selfies darker using the square-frame with the little sun on it turned all way down, take my pic and go to gallery. The photo I've taken naturally dark turns to light in a 2-5 seconds. Why???
Thank you so much ! I just found out about the mirror front facing camera and it’s really helpful ! By the way do you have any idea how to take a photo in full screen ? I mean like the whole screen like android phone, when i change it to 16:9 the photos still not captured in full screen when it’s in the gallery
Yeah you can zoom further but the .5 zooms out and that’s the max zoom out you have. If you zoom in, you have 1x Optical which means the camera actually physically zooms and if you zoom further it uses digital enhancements to get closer which does degrade the quality the more you zoom.
Thanks so much Dan for super tutorial which was straight forward and easy to follow. But question for you, as per other viewer, I'm completely puzzled regarding what one sees in the viewfinder/shooting frame, and the finished photo which seems to remain within that frame. i.e. why wouldn't the whole screen be your frame??? Thanks again, Keith
Thanks glad you liked it. So I’m confused about it to. As far as I have been told it’s to see what’s outside the frame to maybe move to include it. It’s odd to me and I turned it off.
@@DHTV Thanks Dan. But if I turn it off, does that mean that the whole screen then becomes the shooting frame (like with an SLR camera)? And how do you turn it off please?
When use the slow-motion feature the screen starts flickering ,any idea what the reason is?. do you keep the HDR video on or off ?. What about Auto FPS ? Do you apply it to both 30 and 60 FPS?
It’s the lighting in the room. Depending on the type of lighting the slow motion picks up the flickering we can’t see with our eyes. If you try outside in natural light it won’t flicker. Up to you with HDR sometimes it messes up with apps if they can’t handle it.
@@DHTV while iphone is having dual camera setup and it is not having watermark , then is it better to go for iphone mini ya any another model which is having watermark in photo , like OnePlus node is having , so what is your advice in this case sir ...
Hello, I was looking for a way to flip the camera view while making a video (to change between back and front camera while filming). Do you know how to do that?
You can’t without stopping the video. It would be a great feature and it seems like these phones would be capable but Apple hasn’t made it available to us.
@@DHTV thanks for getting back to me. I was so impressed by the 12 mini‘s camera that I was just sure it can do this :) oh well. still a very nice camera.
Could be so many things. Low light is always going to look kind of grainy, if you are shaky when taking pics it could distort it. You can try restarting the iPhone and seeing if that helps but if it persists you can call Apple to see if it’s a defect
@@DHTV Thanks much, I have tried the mentioned things and light and orher things you mentioned were also good not much disturbance. May be I need to approach the apple now 😀
Hey, i really hope you answer my question. I have iphone 12 mini, i tried to take a photo of my painting and once i opened it it looked fine but in a second it changes the colors automatically and it became too warm and yellow. How can i fix it?
Make sure night shift isn’t the cause. It’s In your display settings. If it’s on or set to turn on at a specific time and that was the time, that would explain the warmth as that what night shift does. Otherwise check your photo edits and see if something was edited. Also restart the phone and see if maybe it was a glitch.
@@DHTV thank you for the answer. The night shift wasnt on , i checked and restarted the phone but today i realized that that specific light was the cause. I took a photo in the daylight and it looks fine. Thanks again!
No mention of picture resolution? How do we take small resolution so that RAM doesn't fill up with useless 12MP photos that we only need to be 640x480 to remember something to buy or whatever?
I’m coming from an iPhone 7 to the 12 mini so I really needed this. All those new buttons has me like ????
That’s great that the video helped! That’s a big upgrade

Night mode is a game changer!
Thus is true
for ‘View Outside the Frame’ i used it to set a position marker out of the frame for shots i take daily in the same angle.
Thanks, that makes sense.
Great information, just got my New iPhone 12 Mini yesterday, I upgraded from iPhone 7 so it’s going to take me some time.👍🎥

View Outside the Frame is easier to understand if you use it with Photo>Square format. Because there is so much more that is being cropped out.
I agree and you actually can edit outside the screen a bit on square.

24 fps is for countries having different frequencies in their power lines.
Some videos using indoor lighting causes flickering in videos.😊
That’s sort of a reason but 24fps produces more motion blur so for anyone looking for that effect it’s available.
