Yes, I have taken more photos with my iPhone 4 than with my regular camera, but sometimes
I still feel as though the pictures aren’t worth saving because they are just camera phone pictures. I have to reset my thinking so I will take more with it and keep them around. Also, I am more willing to share my photos on Facebook or twitter because one can actually see a beautifully taken picture I stead if trying to figure out what I’ve taken a photo of.

I definitely think to myself wow I can take video with the phone too, so I’ll end up video recording something rather than taking a photo of it. I haven’t really changed my editing style yet but I am more adapt to taking video of anything that might come in handy to add to a storyline or collage if video later.

Nothing unexpected yet, but more of people around me wishing they had their camera around to get a good picture of something and I pull out my iPhone and take a picture and send it to them without knowing what I did and hearing later of the amazing picture that was taken.
Leave us a comment with your answers. If you leave one of our favorite comments, we’ll send you an iPhone 4 case.

1. The iPhone is the the first phone I like useing for photos but still use my DSLR mostly I do take quite a bit of video of my kids
2. It sort of introduced me to video I’m really a stills persons but I’m increasingly interested in what the iPhone can do
3. I have the worst memory so I take a lot a reference shots stills mostly… A as landscape photographer the iPhone is great I have weather, tide times, dof calcs and all sorts of apps that really help me out.

1. I do tend to take more photos with my phone than my camera just since it’s handy

2. It has not changed the way I edit though since I always use iMovie to edit on my computer

3. There’s been many situations. Mostly at parties with my friends or if something funny happens while we are hanging out

1. Not sure if I take more photos with it, but I sure use it more than my DSLR! I’m taking part in a photo blog and I have found probably at least half of my photos are iPhone shots. I also find, quite frequently, that I like them better, too. The iPhone makes me think more about the shot I’m taking and as a result, I guess, they turn out better. I love that it’s always available to capture the moment.

2. I’m taking more video and sharing it more.

3. Wherever I am I just hit up Google maps for directions, local businesses, etc. I love the ease of use and integration, such as how easy it is to call something found within Google maps. But, really, there’s been too many times and ways to list when the iPhone has come through in a pinch.

Ever since I got the iPhone 4 I started using it more as a production tool rather than just a fun gadget. With the higher end camera I’ve felt more confident in taking pictures with my phone and using them on my blog and flickr.

As for the video, I’ve been shooting what ever I can on it. From location scouting to shooting short films(just one scene stuff). And to my surprise it’s really good!

The best random video recording moment I’ve captured was my god daughter scoring her first goal in soccer. In 720 hd glory.

Seriously, the iPhone has been the best tool to capture stunning video and photos. I still love my 7D.

1. The camera you use the most is the one you always have with you, so I’m definitely using my iPhone 4 more than my Canon Rebel XTi.

2. As far as changing the way I make and edit video, the iPhone 4 hasn’t changed it that much yet, however I do plan on making several edits with it in the near future.

3. Animal shots are always the most sporadic to get and I’ve found that having my iPhone 4 around always makes these easy to capture. I also have captured many photos in my car on trips or on my bike rides around town. It’s very handy to have it and definitely integrates well with online sites such as twitter and facebook.

1) Not only do I take more photos and videos with my iPhone 4, I take BETTER photos and videos.
2) The iPhone 4, with it’s compact size, allows me to be more ’stealth-like’ with my video making. It’s perfect for taking candids – because of it’s small and discreet size, most people don’t even know I’m taking a video! And the ability to edit right on the phone is a dream-come-true! No more waiting until I get home.
3) The handiest my iPhone 4 has been: I was shopping for a leaf blower and the store was trying to gouge the price – thanks to the speed of the iPhone 4, I was able to show them the REAL price. I guess now I need a video of me blowing leaves…

I live in San Francisco, so my iPhone 4 camera comes in handy all the time.. I can’t just pull out a camera to take pics of crazy people in the city or on the BART, but when I see a lady dressed completely in turqouise (hair and all) or a gentleman who’s busting out a drum solo on the Bart seats, the iPhone is a much more incognito way to share the fun with my friends.

I feel that DIY is making a comeback just like Aaron. The best camera is the one you have on you and that typically is my iPhone. You cant beat HD Video recording in seconds. I also hope that movie editing also move over to the mobile world just like iMovie for iPhone.

PS – I cant lie that rigged up tripod with the Slider is amazing! I want to do that sooo bad!
