If we click any photos and if the subject in the image is not in the middle, we delete it immediately. However, there is an option in the camera editor, that let users crop the image. Cropping the shot won’t harm anything. But, you can crop the image to zoom in enough on the subject. However, overcropping would result in pixelation.

#4 Make sure to clean your lens before clicking images

Well, light smudges are easy to ignore. However, this can restrict you from taking good shots. If the lens is covered with smudges, then even the perfect shots after editing won’t give you the desired results. So, make sure to keep a dust removal cloth to wipe the lens before clicking images.

#5 Find a Steady Support
