Lee Joseph, aged 31, of Eastern Street, Aylesbury, was found guilty by a unanimous jury.
The counts count include making an indecent photograph of a child at Category A, B and C in a trial at Amersham Law Courts, which concluded on Friday (25/6).
Joseph was arrested on 24 August last year and charged with the offences on 9 March this year.
Between 26 July 2018 and 8 August 2018, Joseph downloaded indecent images to a mobile phone.
Joseph had his phone seized and 15 indecent images were found in categories A to C.
A download of Joseph’s phone revealed various searches relating to a sexual interest in children.
Joseph pleaded not guilty in court, but a jury convicted him following a two-day trial.
Investigating officer Detective Constable James Lacey of Aylesbury CID said: “Joseph’s defence was that as a result of being homeless, he left his phone on charge in other people’s houses while he was at work and said that the downloads and searches were not done by him.
“He also admitted while giving evidence that he had lied in his police interview in order to disassociate himself from the phone.
“The images downloaded included the most serious category A images of vile sexual activity with children.
“In three separate interviews, Joseph gave conflicting explanations, and continued to deny his involvement even in his trial.
“I am very grateful that the jury saw through his lies and reached this verdict.
“The acquisition of child abuse images is not a victimless crime.
“In order for such images to be created, the children featuring in them will have been subjected to horrific sexual abuse, which is likely to have lifelong impact on their lives and wellbeing.
“I am pleased that Joseph has now been convicted following this investigation.
“Thames Valley Police is committed to keeping children safe from harm and will always robustly pursue anyone who is suspected of this type of offence and, where evidence exists, will place offenders before the courts.”
Joseph has been released on court bail for sentencing at the same court on 27 August.
