Tips for shooting the starry sky at night with mobile phone

1, turn on the camera in the mobile phone. By default, it is normal camera shooting mode. Slide to the left and you will see professional mode.

2. After the professional mode is selected, it is fully automatic by default. Let's look at EV (Exposure Compensation) first, which is adjusted according to the brightness of the environment. At night, we should increase the exposure and adjust it to the maximum, +2.

3. Next is ISO (sensitivity). Although improving the sensitivity will affect the quality of photos and cause noise, it is not a bad thing for the starry sky at night, much better than darkness. It is suggested to adjust it to 800 here, and some people even adjust it directly to 3200.

4. Then there is WB (white balance). Simply put, the purpose of white balance is to restore the original color of the landscape. Because it is dark at night, we need to adjust the white balance to be warmer. We suggest flash mode or daytime mode. Many mobile phones have AWB mode, that is, automatic white balance, so photographers don't have to worry.

5.AF/MF, automatic or manual focusing. Here, of course, choose manual focusing and try to zoom out as far as possible, because the starry sky is really far away.

6, S (shutter speed) time-delay photography, it is recommended to set it above 8, generally 15 seconds is appropriate.
