Jupiter with mobile phone camera without additional lens
Sitting on the balcony together with Ringo, watching the night sky.
What can be better than silence of the night under the sky, with the planets, together with your dog?
The telescope was ready, all the planets visible these days were perfectly in our view. But I have decided to play a little bit with the mobile phone. My question was – can this small device take some pictures of Jupiter? Yeah, it really can. Take a look at the pictures in the video below. The images are not very clear and sharp, but it is really planet Jupiter.
