    It's easier to take a picture of the moon when it's not so dark outside. I took a decent picture this morning without a tripod.

    That’s really strange! With the video function on the iPhone, you can apparently “photograph” the moon better than with the photo function on the iPhone 16 Pro. It seems that the video mode handles light and details better, probably because multiple frames are combined and optimized during filming. Meanwhile, the HDR processing in the photo mode seems to struggle more with extreme contrasts, such as the moon against a dark sky.
    Maybe this will be improved with a software update, but it’s interesting to discover that the video mode actually has an advantage here.

    I wonder if it would have turned out if you hit the photo capture button while taking the video. Me thinks it would capture a higher resolution image than the screen capture.

      Ridiculous. Simply shoot in RAW (you clearly have it disabled), lower ISO to 100, then lower the exposure by raising your shutter speed until you can see all the detail on the surface of the moon. And while you are doing all that, manually focus on the moon (although autofocus will be good enough, but only after you manually lower the exposure.
      This is very basic photography and these instructions apply to ANY camera. It's not rocket science. Nothing in this video is good advice; in fact, the whole thing is completely ridiculous, as are all the comments from Apple people.
      The only reason this video "trick" works is because taking videos automatically raises your shutter speed. You can simply raise the shutter speed of your "stills" camera (i.e., "photo mode," not "video mode"), which is the only way for any camera to be able to properly photograph the moon. (Most cameras can also allow you to close, or stop-down, your aperture, but Apple products are fixed-aperture.)

    • @skankytrick
      @skankytrick หลายเดือนก่อน

      🤦 You simply set your ISO to 100 and your shutter speed to around 1/2000 and the moon will be perfectly exposed. Taking a screenshot of a video is this guy's best method?!? That's insane! All you basically have to do is raise your shutter speed. It is literally that simple. JFC. And yes, he should be shooting in RAW, which you can clearly see on his screen that he disabled RAW recording. That just further demonstrates that he is not someone who has any clue about photography. But he's out here making videos to teach ignorance. Instead of simply raising the shutter speed, he takes a video of the moon so he can take a screenshot. 🤣

    As always, Shayne, great advice. It's surprising that people think the Moon requires a nighttime exposure, when in reality, it is a full-Sun, daylight object.

  • @toivonencresto
    @toivonencresto หลายเดือนก่อน

    You can do just the same taking a photo. Just have to play with the locking autofocus (yes, you have to -2.0 the exposition and then do just the same with the sliding down, once you Lock the focus). I did some pretty good pics with an iPhone 15 pro max that, modified just a little with Lightroom or Photo, became very very good to be a phone shoot.

  • @hovelad

    Never thought of using video! Brilliant. Thanks

    • @skankytrick
      @skankytrick หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not brilliant. Completely dumb. Taking a video only works somewhat because videos are taken with a higher shutter speed automatically. Literally all you have to do is manually set your ISO to 100, then raise your shutter speed until you can see all the detail on the moon the same as you can with your eyes. You should also use manual focus, and it may be difficult to focus whether manual or automatic until you first lower the exposure by raising the shutter speed, and again you must keep your eyes open at 100. It is extremely simple, this ridiculous "screenshot a video" method is just ludacris.

    • @skankytrick
      @skankytrick หลายเดือนก่อน

      You should also shoot in raw, unlike the guy in the video who clearly has a slash mark through his RAW icon on his phone screen. Your life would be far easier and make much more sense if you stopped using Apple products. Apple products make people dumb. When people use Apple products I rightfully assume they don't understand anything at all about technology. This video is proof of this. Completely ridiculous, but it does epitomize Apple people.
