This account is dedicated to Astrophotography with smartphones. You own a smartphone! Point it at the sky! let's see what these smartphones are capable of.
@rdv4ljb @GP_O11 (2)For that reason there would appear to be
very few suitable alternatives for our smartphone astrophotography that provide a better option than the default
camera installed on many smartphones. But that's my opinion.
@rdv4ljb @GP_O11 (1)There is a vast number of alternate camera apps available on the market, the
overwhelming majority of these products are more suited to general photography rather than
the specific requirements of astrophotography.
@YogeshBang For this reason there would appear to be
very few suitable products for our hobby that provide a better alternative than the default
camera installed on many smartphones, especially third party apps which are free of charge.

I've been experimenting this month imaging Venus with my S9plus smartphone through a 10" Orion Optics UK f4.8 dob. using a Astronomik 807 IR pass filter. The first image( thin crescent) I took the 4th of December and the second the 24th of December.
The second image I obtained a few days ago shows more or less the same stripe, what could be a good explantation? The stripe is also faintly visible on single frames so no stacking artifact. Any ideas? The gif contains two 500 frame stacks taken twenty days apart.

@smartphoneastro What about this one? Photo taken at Maragogi Beach (-09º00'44", -35º13'21") on 12/11/2018. I used a Xiaomi Mi A2, 32" exposure, ISO 3200 https://t.co/Pdb9OLDEvw
