For handheld shots, an app such as River Past’s $1 Night Camera can increase your chances of getting a steady shot. The program uses the iPhone’s accelerometer to determine when the camera is still enough to take the shot. It also lets you turn the entire screen into a shutter button-so you have an easier target-and lets you set a timer so you can prop up the iPhone and get in the shot yourself.

An even better way to get sharper photos is to prop your iPhone against something steady before you tap the camera button. If you’re willing to spend a little money, the $4 Batrest by Seskimo folds up to create a makeshift stand. When not in use, it collapses to the size of a credit card so you can carry it in your wallet. Seskimo also recently introduced the slightly larger $5 Crabble, which includes non-slip rubber pads that hold your iPhone more securely.

This is just a sample of the many cool and surprising uses of iPhone’s camera. With Web access you can: Take wider shots, Get a personal shopper, Find your mobile photos fast, Supercharge your photo browser, Track down a font, and many many more.
