So hello 👋 Members seeing 👀 you after like century,
Many of you may wonder (may be not)how to capture star trials , so here's how to
To capture star trials with mobile camera there are 2 basic requirements 1)A Mobile
2) Pro mode witn 30s or 32s exposure (s=30/32s)
And yes if you have Galaxy Z Fold or Flilp or a tripod then great👍
Open camera and go to pro mode and set s=30/32s (depending on camera support) (if expert RAW Supported
The use respective options of astrophotography)
3) fix phones location (stabel and camera facing night sky) , be in an dark area with less noise(light pollution) .
4) now take 30sx50 shots or 32sx50 shots and use an app to combine them properly to from start trails and to save your time because you won't be using Adobe Photoshop I have found app which does it all you just need to select all shots😉 link:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slash.startrails
Now let me explain the reason of star trials
See stars are millions of lightyears away from us so they appear stationary form frame of reference of earth🌎
And earth takes 4mins to rotate by 1° (degrees) , due to this if you take long exposure shots of night sky for more than 4 mins you bet star trials!
This was captured by me (zoom a bit to see because it was of 10mins instead of 26 mins for 50 shots)
Bonus tip: if you manage to make the pole star at center of your camera frame you get star circles (in North directon)
