ANDROID'S PRO PHOTOGRAPHY MODE and FULL MANUAL CONTROL I have been using my android smartphones for night scape pictures, nightscape timelapses and Milkyway Galaxy
pictures last 4 years because Android Camera app is
allowing you to get full control over phone's all cameras, just
like any other professional digital cameras.
Making "Long Exposure Photography" for up to 30 seconds for each individual cameras on your phone in "PRO MODE" is possible with using a tripod. Besides that you can also take RAW images with Android phones which allows you to even stacking for deep sky astrophotography. Most high end Android Phones manifactured between 2018-2022 will have the Pro Mode in your Google Camera App without needing an additional camera app. Samsung Galaxy s22, Galaxy s22 Ultra, Galaxy s23 Ultra and s23 have the exact same cameras.
IPHONE
I have tried the same with an iphone 13 Pro Max but the problem was, you can't actually use the iphone's camera manually. Everything is calculated with Al and it wont allow you to control your ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture manually even with the night mode. For astrophotography you need to able manually control your ISO, Shutter Speed, Aperture Control. I don't know if there is any additional app that gives you full manual control of an iphone camera, that might work too. Please let me know in the comments if you know an additional app for iphone for manual camera use, I would love to give it a try.
CALIBRATION FRAMES I didn't take any calibration frames because I wasn't expecting getting good results on a deep sky object with a phone camera but next time I will take more frames including calibration frames.
Normally, there are 3 Calibration frames that needs to be taken in the field when you are taking your main pictures because temperature matters for digital camera sensors. I will make a detailed video about how to take calibration frames soon but for now you can check this link to learn more about calibration frames in detail:

    Sadly, there is apparently no 3rd party app that can access the periscope camera of the Pixel 6 Pro in manual mode. Google's periscope camera hardware (the Galaxy S20 Ultra seems to have the same periscope lens) should be theoretically(!) one of the best smartphone cameras for deep sky objects (in comparison with the 70mm camera of the S22 you should get about the same signal to noise ratio from deep sky objects with roughly only 24-29% as many frames (though I haven't taken into account that the periscope lens is rectangular), if you use the same exposure time per frame and reduce the resolution afterwards).

    Hi, if it comes as a white picture, it is probably because you might be over exposuring your frame. When you are in pro mode, play with your shutter speed or ISO to find the best for your environment. Btw I would like to mention that the settings I ve used in this video is for a rural area away from city's light pollution, if you use these settings in the city, it will be over exposed due to the light pollution around you. I would like to learn what is causing this, let me know if you still have the same problem.

  • @kitchenraw

    Main camera is too wide (23mm) to see any nebula. You can definetely capture it, but it will be too small in your frame. Nebulas are considered as "deep sky objects" and it requires at least 50mm or higher focal lenght. Main camera (23mm) performs the best if you capture wider objects like Milkyway Core or Cygnus Region. Summer season is perfect for Milkyway. I will post a video soon about capturing the milkyway with s22 too.

    Megapixels are not that important especially for astrophotography, because more pixels creates more noise in your image under low light. Important part is the sensor size which all newer Samsung models are using similar sensor size. I tried Note 20 Ultra's 108 megapixel camera capturing Milkyway before, there is no difference with capturing milkyway with my new s22's 50mpixel main camera. I bet a73 uses the same 108mpixel sensor so you will probably get the same results if you can use the pro mode with 30 seconds long exposure. I would actually love to see results of a73's on astrophotography.

  • @kitchenraw

    Also forgot to mention, most important requirement for astrophotography is the having the full manual mode with 30 seconds long exposure time in "Pro Photography Mode" for sure Galaxy S series are capable for long exposuring and raw image capturing. After checking some reviews I learned that a73 is not capable of taking "raw" images. So the answer is s22 will take better astrophotography pictures then a73 bc it can take raw unprocessed images.

    For stacking, you should only use the pictures taken with same ISO and same Shutter Speed. All pictures need to have the same values. ISO 100 is really low to capture anything in the dark. I would suggest using ISO 800 or 1600 and take at least 20 pictures of the same frame.

    Most of the newer Android phones with good cameras are now capable for taking RAW images besides JPEGs. And most of the android phones can use the long exposuring option from the android Stock Cam App by choosing "PRO Photography Mode". If you are not into curve corners Galaxy s22 Ultra has sharp edges and better cameras. Doesn't matter which Samsung Galaxy you have, you will have great results especially for astrophotography when you use 30 sec, 20 sec, 8 sec shutter speed.

    You should manually focus until stars are small and sharp. You can try capturing milkyway with wide angle camera or main camera and set your shutter to 20 sec or 30 sec, you will see milkyway without stacking. But for deep sky astrophotography, stacking is a must.

S22 Ultra has Super Wide and Wide Cameras and it will give you 30 sec exposure without star trails. Tele lenses are challenging in many ways, if you are a beginner starting with wide angle lenses are good to learn the process. Most importan thing for astrophotography is the light pollution. Make sure that you are far away from city lights and there is no moon when you are capturing. Read the description, I left some links to check lightpollution around you and Moon phases.

    You can take milkyway shots with Iphone's night mode up to 15 seconds, but I don't think you can take deep sky pictures with an Iphone. First, you need to be able to have full manual control of the camera. Especially for stacking process, you have to get raw unedited picture files taken with exact same settings (shutter speed/iso/focus). If you can find a third party app for Iphone to deliver raw unedited picture files with full manual control, yes it would work.

    Great! Calibration frames are helpfull to get rid of the noise also helps removing vignetting and distortion while stacking your images. When you are stacking, there is a button for uploading for "Dark and Bias Calibration Frames" says "Noise Images". And "Flat Calibration Frames" goes to the button says "Vignetting Images".

    @@samushiba1607 There is a formula called "Rule of 500" to calculate perfect exposuring time depending on your focal lenght without star trails. Formula is easy "500÷Focal Lenght= Exposure Time(shutter speed)". S22 Ultra's 10x camera is equivalent to 230mm. So 500÷230=2.1 seconds. 2 second can be short so you need to take more pictures to get more detail in your picture. If you are a beginner, I would suggest you to start with main or wide angle camera on s22 to give you more exposure time and learn the process. Using 10x camera will be really hard because you need to spend good amount of time to locate your object in your frame in the dark.

    Pixel phones are so amazing in terms of astrophotography because besides the long exposuring option, pixel has an "astrophotography mode" as you mentioned. When you are in Astro Mode, Pixel can auto take lots of long exposured pictures of the dark sky and stack them internally in seconds to give you a stacked final file. I normally use sequator stacking software on my laptop and spend hours for stacking. Pixel does it in seconds is crazy.

    Yes, as far as I know, the 6 Pro chooses 16s per frame when you choose the periscope camera. This leads to star trails and it seems that no 3rd party app can access the periscope camera in manual mode. So Google really needs to solve these issues.
