I use iphone 11 and have set up voice control so just say "snap" and it takes single picture or "snap it" and it takes several

use portrait mode, and set up on tripod using unhooking mat to frame picture

works a treat

Got one of these last week but not used it on the bank yet. Worked fine when i tested it in the garden.

All I use is a bank stick with a small torch attached to it. Used to work fine with my old Canon 600D but decided to cut down on what i carry to the lake so will just be using my iPhone 12 from now on.

You can set it up using the voice control settings within the iPhone it's self. Fairly easy vid to follow when you get to the bit where you tap the screen tap it serval times before saving the settings. When you set the camera up for a self take just select the portrait camera mode .

Tell Siri to turn voice control on. Say ‘open camera' then ‘show names' and it shows you all the button names for voice control. So to take portrait photos you say ‘swipe left camera mode'. Then ‘tap take picture' to take a shot.

How cool is this! I have always admired people who are able to figure out how to make their work a little easier and make the process even more enjoyable.

Could always get a tablet and mirror what the camera is looking at so you can frame things properly. I know it's a bit of extra kit having to take a tablet as well, does solve a problem though 👍

I have done this with a Ipad & Iphone 12 pro max. Works a treat.

As other have said i use a little bluetooth clicker on the phone and works great. I have also found it better in portrait mode to try it without the flash first and let the phone automatically choose, I have had low light pictures come out really well when it uses its own night mode to adjust the photo. Just takes upto 3 seconds to capture the picture after clicking.

Another Alternative !! No messing about and you also have a video record of the capture !!

Do you still rate the Note 4, you can pick one up for £40 nowadays if you all you are after is a camera.

What about night time shots, have you worked out how to do those?

I only use a phone for my self takes also upgraded to 12 pro max few months ago but was using an iphone X and was really good at night using also the bivvy light and amazing quality.
What I use instead of those bluetooth controllers is an App called "Whistle Camera"!
That app in my opinion just makes everything much easier you set the time you want and just whistle and that will activate the camera.
Also a tip regarding that app is the ads on it, but if you put on airplane mode or just turn off the network no ads will show

The tripod i use is one from NGT not the best but at the time was the cheapest and good enought for what i need, but this days you have way better ones for around the same price

Little tip for you, get a bigger light and move it further away from you when filming in the bivvy. I never made it past the first couple of minutes, photo tips from ghost face dude blowing highlights out ain't for me
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
