Inspired by another pic on here, finally figured out the astrophotography mode on my phone camera - 5min exposure in rural Wales (lemmy.world)

Google Camera on any Android will have the astro mode in Night Sight
It requires the phone is perfectly stable or else it won't activate.

also hey lmao

Hmm I have something called "nightscape" but I think it can only do 30 second exposures

Are you sure you're using Google Camera and not some random bundled camera app from Samsung or whatever?

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 3 points 1 month ago

It looks like the default one to me, but I guess it could be a bundled one. But I tried downloading another camera app and it showed the same 30 second exposure limit so I'm guessing it's a hardware limitation.
