There's also the 3 or 10 second timer function.
Last night I photographed the Wishes fireworks show at Disney. I took around 200 shots. If I would have used the timer it would have taken about 20 photos. When I am photographing fireworks I need the shutter to close the instant I see the shot, not many seconds later.

I post all my photos from the previous month on the first of the next month. So my November photos will be posted on the first of December. I will be starting a thread about it the same day. I photographed three amazing fireworks shows this week.

On average, that shakes the camera more than touching screen does, as it takes more effort to depress a physical button that it does to touch a screen.


I've found that those I've recommended it to, take better pictures because they can hold the phone more securely.
 
I saw that one but I went with Muku Shuttr because it got much better customer reviews, it doesn't require a seperate app and it is flatter so it doesn't bulge in my pocket.

It doesn't need a separate app and it's the same build quality. That one Is WAY overpriced but to each his own I guess.
 
The sheer weight and size of the giant 6 plus eliminates any significant recoil from pressing the volume button. :p
 
I bought the iPhone 6 so it would be my primary camera. Using the shutter button is problematic and can cause camera shake. So I found a wonderful remoter shutter that is cheap and works great. It is Blue tooth and the shutter is on a small card that attaches to the key chain. It is pricey but then again all of Apple is pricey.

Just use the volume button on the headphone cord. No shake.
