It's quite amazing how cell phones have learned to take photos even in low light conditions, typically at night. Algorithms keep improving every year, and the results themselves improve as well. According to DXOMark, the current king in this regard is the Google Pixel 7 Pro, but the iPhone 14 Pro is not doing badly either, and of course Galaxy S23 Ultra.
- Open the application Camera.
- Scroll to the menu Další.
- Select an option here Night.
- Click the number in the lower right corner to change the duration of the scene capture.
- Then that's it press the shutter button.
Of course, in this regard it is convenient to use a tripod. This prevents the body from naturally shaking. If you are already shooting handheld, press the shutter release while exhaling, when the human body shakes less than during inhalation, ideally with elbows close to the body. The stabilization of the lens is of course powerful, but not omnipotent. At the same time, you will get the best results with a classic wide-angle camera, thanks to its highest quality optics. This is true for any smartphone.

Hypertime with star orbits
One of the news Galaxy The S23 Ultra is also capable of taking photos of star trails. Provided you have a clear sky above, you can capture the movement of the stars (and, unfortunately, artificial satellites), resulting in incredible results. But you have to take into account that such photography is a bit more demanding. A tripod is a must here, as is more of your time.
