Doesn’t Samsung just overlay moon.jpg when it detects you’re framing the moon irl?
Apple
A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
yupppp. "AI"
No, it uses ai enchancing just as every other smartphone does.
That’s Samsung bs speak for the over-glorified, high tech way that it overlays moon.jpg into images that it detects contain the moon.
All phones use AI to sharpen images, but Samsung uses AI to quite literally slap on a fake image of the moon when it detects a moon, so this is very, very different.
There are literally videos of people fooling the algorithm by putting a white circle on a dark background and it suddenly turned it into a moon…
I think it is actually a machine learning neural net but it's job is basically "does that look like the moon? Then put the moon stuff on it."
I took this using LightRoom. It allows you to choose the ISO and shutter speed. This photo was with 1/800s shutter speed, 100 ISO, and f/2.8 aperture.
My best shot EVER on my 14pro max. Literally had to stand there for 20 mins and eventually I got a decent pic! I don’t think it gets any better than this lmao most of the time when I try to photograph the moon it’s just a white blob.
Tripod, and some of the setting changes mentioned by others
Shot on iPhone 6s
Lmao
Smartphones and even digital photography did not yet exist during the Moon Landing.
Shit really?
Honestly I'll stick to my samsung galaxy with the whole ass camera built into it
~~automatic overlay of moon.jpg feature~~
Highly advanced, Super Retina, KrystalKlear Technology, 5 lens, whole ass camera.
Use a camera, not your phone. Probably not the answer you were looking for, but it’s the truth. You need a physically much larger sensor to get high resolution at long distances.
I have a 10 inch dobsonian telescope actually, but I just was curious about how to get a decent snap with the camera too whenever I see something interesting on the go (e.g. the moon pops out of a forest or something)
Bro doesn’t want to be a professional moon photographer.
Saw this advice once from u/seoulitude and kept it as a screenshot. Haven’t had a chance to try it yet:
“set the video to 4k60fps > click the telephoto lens and zoom in > tap your subject and lock the focus > lower the exposure / drag the sun dial down > take a video > take the photo”
Who cares about moon shots? I never got that
ISO 25 , 77mm , 1/640 , iPhone 13 Pro
Wait how? I have an iPhone 13 and I can never get anything like this without a telescope what app did you use.
Adobe (Photoshop) Lightroom
What’s 77mm in 5yearold terms?
3x tele
Close your eyes
Best one ive taken so far, iphone 13 x5 zoom (cropped image)
I just took this photo, default settings.
I watched an IG post the other day that said you should focus your camera on the furthest thing away from you that you can, then use the focus lock and then adjust the exposure if you need too.
maybe dont put the iso over 9000
Gotta enable pro raw in the settings
Not the moon but took this at night with night mode turned all the way up
I'm not an iPhone user at all, but I've heard around that just try to experiment with exposure and brightness and what not. I think the 15 Pros camera is a step up but I'm not sure about astrophotography. Just try to experiment with a couple settings, don't worry if the moon looks dark when you are taking the photo as you can edit it later! Hope this helped any 🌚
Put your pants back on
Fun fact: most modern day android phones aren’t actually taking a picture of the moon either. The software approximates the picture and fills in the gaps using stock images.
iPhone’s, and probably some other Android phones too don’t do that. Just look how bad quality most of the pictures on this thread are. If they were computer generated, they wouldn’t look that noisy. I know Samsung does that thing you’re talking about because there’s a setting.
I took this way back when from my iPhone OG 👌🏻
There’s an app, that is pretty good called “Moontake”
There are some good videos on this with just the standard camera app. And in handy during a lunar eclipse
You can try going into video, zooming all the way in, start recording and tap and slide down the exposure and use that button in the bottom right to take individual pictures
Switch to 4k60fps video mode. Max zoom, lower exposure until you get the amount of detail you desire. Record, snap a photo. Tweak it a little since the photo will come out dark.
