2. Hold down the red button to start recording and tap it again when you
want to stop recording.
3. Pick your filter if you want, add a caption and a tag, and send the video
on its way.

You can like and comment on others’ videos (you can’t add a tag), just as you can
with photos, so remember to do that to get in on the conversation.

Using filters

When you first post images, you may feel that you must use one of the filters that
Instagram provides. That’s entirely up to you. Actually, 50 percent of users use the
normal (no) filter on their photos. So snap some shots just to experience the
process.

Currently the filters are as follows:

» Normal
» Clarendon

» Gingham
» Moon
» Lark
» Reyes

» Juno
» Slumber
» Crema
» Ludwig

» Aden
» Perpetua
» Amaro
» Mayfair

» Rise
» Hudson
» Valencia
