How to connect a Nikon and iPhone?
I need to take a self portrait with a nikon D7000 and it doesn't have a flip out screen so I won't know if I am in frame or in focus. I go to an arts high school and some one in my class has this cord that connects his phone to his cannon camera. So I was wondering if any one new what kind of cord I would need for a nikon? I have D7000 and an iPhone?
Any thing would really help thank you

Set up your camera on a tripod and enable liveview.
Put a mirror beind the camera so you can see the display from where you are sitting/standing.
That way you will be able to see if you are in frame.

Phone tethering is very new and currently I think only the Canon t4i has the feature. It's overkill for what you are trying to do any way!
Just use a tripod, look thought the viewfinder so you can judge the background and align yourself to it. Set the camera on Manual focus with the focus ring set to a distance you measured with a tape measure - making sure that you use a sensible aperture to get the required depth of field.
I'm not an old school manual everything freak, but there are times when manual is quicker, easier, and more controllable. In the context of art school photography you'll learn more this way too!
