This is the third installment in a series by Hawaii photographer Natalie Norton on becoming confident with manual camera settings. If you are new to photography, or don’t have a clean grasp of manual settings, I recommend that you go back and read the first two installments of this series: Understanding Aperture and Understanding Shutter Speed and then come on over to learn about ISO.

The Art of iPhone Battery Life (70)

How to Change the World (275) permalink
Some of my buddies have expressed astonishment that I get approximately thirty-six hours of standby with my iPhone, so I'm sharing my settings. Note: this is my second 3G iPhone--I returned the first one because I was getting only five hours of standby time. This is my usage screen. One thing to notice: I don't talk much on the phone--"talk is not cheap" in my book. I am totally an email/tweet centric person.

It is especially helpful if you travel. When I'm in town, I keep my iPhone plugged in. The battery life truly is terrible. I hope this is something that Apple can fix going forward.
- Loic Le Meur said: I should follow Guy's advice to get better from mine
- Tibor said: I'f you want your brand new iPhone 3G to last longer, here's tips from Guy Kawasaki.
- colladude said: iphone battery life
- ScrewTheMan.com said: Guy's approach is a bit extreme- I really don't think I should turn off all of the advanced features on my phone. But it's a good example that the iPhone's standby time can be improved with some customization. We just need an app to support Locations and swap settings like the Macs too.
- adam said: I consider my iPhone a "tinytop computer that can also send and receive phone calls" as opposed to a phone that can "do email and browse."
- Stewtopia said: all good tips. the only thing that I would add is turn the brightness down to about 1/4.

Executor Is Impressive, Full-Featured App Launcher [Featured Windows Download] (98)
