Long exposure photography lets you capture light trails, motion blur, and better low light shots. While the built-in Camera app doesn’t let you control shutter speed and light sensitivity, there are lots of apps available in the App Store that do.

The iPhone is a great camera – for a phone. It’s low light capabilities aren’t very good. But, with proper technique and some clever apps, you can create pretty good low light images with your iPhone.
