Did anyone else expect night mode to be this good with the new iPhone 11 Pro?

I asked the same question earlier. He told me the darker it is the longer it will default. So I put it on the tripod to take some moon and star shots and it defaulted to 40 seconds. I live in the mountains so it’s super dark out

It’s the movement that can trigger longer exposure on night mode so by putting it on tripod, the option for long exposure will become available. Holding the phone by hand, you can only go for 3 to 6 seconds depending on how steady your hand is.

Check your EXIF info on photos. I manually set 10 seconds (13.2 allows you to adjust it manually) and while it appeared to have the "shutter" open for 10 seconds, the EXIF shows 1 second and that would make sense because there was a moving subject (car) and it only appears to have moved a distance that would be equal to 1 second of capture time. Perhaps there is an upper limit to actual exposure and the rest of the captures are for data processing, et al. Seems to be getting interesting either way. Time for some tripod action.

I didn't expect the Camera in night mode on the Pro Max to be this GOOD. I'm impressed and can barely wait to take some good photos.

I took this last night, no light as the moon was still low. I was amazed, I love it.

On another note, does anyone know if you can hook up an iPhone to a telescope, to take pictures?
