I just use my iPhone. Some of the folks have amazing cameras and amazing skill and you can tell when you see their photos. Take Jocke's for instance. He's a master at the proper lighting and staging.

I have an issue being able to upload the pics due to a size restriction. Any thoughts on how to meet the site's size policy? Thanks in advance.

I use my Galaxy Note 8 for some and get lucky if the lighting is great but my good ones are a big DSLR camera. If your just starting out, start by taking pics out side on a clear day about 3 hours before sunset. Morning sun can have a bit too much color. Natural lighting can hide a lot of rookie mistakes.

I guess we should be thankful Rolex does not make cell phones!
