[Nfb-krafters-korner] Taking pictures as a blind person

[blindhands at aol.com]

Now I haven't done this as of yet, but doesn't the new IPone 6 s plus have a
very good camera on it?  Would that be good enough to take pictures?  

I believe a lot of folks take pictures on their phone and post to EBay to
sell their items.  

I tried finding someone to take pictures for me after I had gone thru the
EBay Course in Baltimore.  That was my largest hurdle.  I couldn't find
someone to do it and I offered money.  Everyone has no time on their hands
to do much in their free time.  What gets me and I have a lot of time
sitting here and can't.

Lisa,

Have you tried tap tap see?

It will take pictures and verbally describe the picture for you.  you will
be told if the picture is too blurry or too dark. You will know if something
is in the picture that you don't want in there.

I don't know how professional these pictures come out, but this ap will
certainly help you learn to focus your camera. 

When you use the regular camera on the iPhone you cannot know how well the
picture comes out at all. there is a visual display so the sighted person
can line up the shot perfectly, but that doesn't help us. perhaps if you
learned to take pictures with tap tap see you could then take them
successfully with the regular camera. 

Just a thought.
Cathy F
