With the iPhone 5s you can take a burst of photos at 10 images per second and then choose which photos from that collection to keep.
1. In the Camera app, set the mode to Photo.
2. When you are ready, tap and hold the shutter button to take photos. Continue to hold.
3. You will see a counter tell you how many photos have been taken so far. The number will increase quickly.
4. When you are done taking photos, release the shutter button.
5. Next, tap the thumbnail to view your captured photos.
6. At the top left you will see an indicator letting you know you are viewing a collection of photos from Burst Mode. It will show you how many photos are in the collection.
7. One photo will already have been selected to represent the collection. Your iPhone chooses based on factors like focus, blur and closed eye detection.
8. You can delete the entire collection quickly and easily if you know you didn't capture anything worth keeping.
9. To view the photos in the collection and select some to keep, tap Favorites.
10. Tap the circle at the bottom right corner of any photo to indicate that you want to keep it.
11. Swipe left or right to view all of the photos in the collection.
12. Tap Done when you have selected the photos you want to keep.
13. Tap Camera Roll to go up to the Camera Roll level.
14. You will see your Burst mode collection and can go back into it at any time. Notice how it looks like a stack of photos instead of a single one.
15. You will also see any individual photos you have selected from inside the collection.
16. In most cases you will want to get rid of the collection after you select the best ones from it. To do this, first tap Select.
17. Tap the collection.
18. Tap the Trash button to delete it. The photos you had previously selected will stay in the Camera Roll, but the collection with the rest of the photos will be deleted.
It is important to keep tabs on your Burst Mode shoots, as just a few seconds of burst shooting here and there can fill up the space on your iPhone. A good practice is to take a burst, select the one or two you want, and then delete the burst collection immediately.
