Cell phone image of me and my three camera setup in the wee hours of the west desert - one Canon and two Sony's. While I was walking between the cameras the phone was taking a 4 minute video after which it auto processed into a 1 second video and a single image. I'm more of a ghostly blur at the middle camera. Still surprising me to see the results of an astro image rendered by a cell phone. Not near a mirrorless or DSLR camera imaging capability but when viewed on the phone screen it's amazing. Everyone I've shown these to are astounded and if they see a "real" camera image they gasp while I'm correctly telling them " no...this isn't from the cell, it's from a "BIG" camera. I think I shot a hundred or so images total between the 3 cameras...so lots of post processing ahead.

Google Pixel 5 Phone. ISO 992, f/1.7 focal length 4.38mm = 27mm lens. Phone was clamped into a Joby Octopus tripod sitting on the roof of my car.
