How to Use the Camera on iPhone iPad or iPod Touch

1. Open the Camera app. The Camera app can also be accessed quickly from your device's lock screen by swiping left. No need to unlock first.
   
2. For simple point-and-shoot photo taking, frame the scene you want to take just like normal and simply press the Shutter button on the screen.
   
3. The physical Volume Up button on the side of your iOS device as a shutter button for taking photos as well.
   
4. To switch to the front-facing camera, use the Flip Camera button to the right of the shutter button. Photos can be taken with the same shutter button on-screen, or the physical volume up button on the side of the device.
   
5. Tap the Thumbnail button at the bottom left to preview and edit the most recently taken photo.
   

Burst mode takes a series of photos in rapid succession. This is great for capturing motion shots or even group photos, where choosing the best "moment" within that series of burst photos can be the difference between a great photo and a missed moment.

1. Launch the Camera app from the home screen.
   
2. When taking a photo, HOLD DOWN the Shutter button to take a burst of photos.
   
3. Tap the Thumbnail image to open the most recently taken photo.
   
4. Your iOS device will show a single photo as the thumbnail, as it automatically chooses what it feels is the best photo from the burst. However, you can actually choose which photos you like best within that burst.
   
5. Tap Select at the top of the photo preview to begin looking at each photo from the burst of photos that were taken.
   
6. You will now see all the photo thumbnails across the bottom that were captured during your burst shot. Swipe to the left or right to move between each shot. You can tap the Circle button in the lower right corner of a photo to select it as one you would like to keep.
   
7. Tap Done in the upper right hand corner when you've selected each photo from the burst you would like to keep.
   
8. Tap Keep Everything if you'd like to hang onto all the photos from the burst you did NOT select (in case you want to go through them again later), or tap Keep Only X Favorites to get rid of everything EXCEPT the ones you selected.
   
9. Once you've done this, all the photos you chose to keep from the burst will now show as individual photos in your photo history.
