Usually for taking shots like this, you need to be in an area with very dark skies. Then, you go on expert mode, and set the Shutter speed to around 8s or so. For the ISO, I would recommend around 1000. Keep in mind that the phone must be standing in a tripod or surface, because it’s gonna be capturing a picture for those 8s, so the slightest move will make the image blurry.

Once you’ve taken the picture (always in RAW mode), you can check how it turned out and tweak the adjustments. More ISO will give you more exposure, but also more noise in the picture. More shutter speed will increase the exposure but it might make the stars look like lines due to Earth’s rotation.

I hope this helps you guys, otherwise there are a lot of good tutorials on youtube on how to do night photography with a phone or any camera

Good one

DavidMontero i tried. Definitely not for city people. I consistently got bright white photo. Even with around 1000iso.

aekit there’s too much light pollution in the city. You can’t even see the stars by your own eyes. You only can take those photos in the city if there’s a massive city wide blackout😂

Udin 😂😂 true. I will try this in my village that’s better option.

Bubi Hey can you please share the settings you have used to capture this awesome photo

Bubi

HuzefaChalla of course my friend.

Nothing Phone (2) expert mode:

20s Shutter time

ISO 2000

If I remember correctly, I used the RAW file to edit it better in Snapseed and then in Lightroom.

Here’s a screenshot with the metadata of the picture

I hope this helped. Night photography can be a bit tricky, specially at the beginning, but I think it’s really rewarding once you start getting the feel of it and you’re able to obtain your first images.

Also keep in mind that, in order to have a good picture, there is a big part of post-processing involved.

If you have any more questions I’ll be happy to help 🙌🏻

Edit: For instance, here’s what a RAW image looks like without any editing
