Smartphones have insanely advanced cameras. During the day, they take stunning, high-resolution photos with incredible detail. But the moment you try to capture the moon, or anything in the night sky, the quality completely falls apart.
Why is that? High-end cameras like Canon and Nikon can take incredible night photos with the right settings. But who is carrying one of those around when something unexpected happens? When an average person spots a strange light in the sky, they pull out their phone, and the result is always the same: a grainy, low-res image. It makes it easy for skeptics to dismiss anything captured by regular people. Everyone will say the image looks fake, cause it does.
Night mode still only works well in well-lit environments like city streets. And if camera brands have figured out low-light photography, why haven’t smartphone manufacturers made serious improvements in this area? Are they just ignoring it, or is there a reason they don’t want us clearly photographing what’s up there?
What do y'all think?
