Traveler tip
99 Use your phone
As I prepared for my O.A.T. trip to Peru and Machu Picchu in
fall 2016, I realized that the camera on my new cell phone was of better
quality and pixel size than my not-that-old digital camera. My cell phone
also allowed me to easily zoom in with a quick finger swipe. … I could also
switch to video mode quickly if an action-filled activity suddenly came
into view or I wanted to record some audio. By turning on the geographic
tag feature of my phone, the location of my photos was automatically
recorded along with the photo file; that helped me remember where all
my photos had been taken when I got back home and started to create a
photo album of my trip.
