Description

This is an app that allows you to easily photograph the moon at night, including its pattern. You can also zoom easily.
Usage is simple.
(A) Tap the moon from the menu and tap the closest moon shape among the three.
(B) Point the camera at the moon and zoom.
(C) Release the shutter without moving the smartphone (tripod recommended). The shutter will fire several times, so don't let it slide until the end.
If you cannot take any of the photos with the moon in focus, you can try "changing the center of focus" as many times as you like below.
Tap the manual mode button (second button from the bottom right) to enter manual mode, where you can manually set focus, ISO/shutter speed, white balance, and multiple exposure parameters.
-------------------------
The features of this app are
(1) Fully automatic function
- If you select "Moon", the exposure will be automatically darkened in response to the bright moon in the night sky, and the focus will be adjusted to the distance.
Since it fires continuously while changing the focus multiple times, you can choose the best result among them. (The number of consecutive shots and the center of focus can be changed with the slider)
*"Change the focus center": Tap "Moon" on the shooting screen to display the moon shape selection segment, the number of consecutive shots slider, and the focus center slider. Now you can change each value.
Because the moon is far away, it is difficult to focus when zoomed in. Therefore, if you take pictures while changing the focus little by little, you can expect the moon to be in focus at some point.
The focus range is from 0 (nearby) to 1 (far), but in reality, the focus is shifted by 1/5 when shooting. For example, 0.7 to 0.9 (0.8 in the center). By changing the center of focus, you can shift the focus within any range and fire continuously.
- There are two types of night views.
・"Night Scene 1" brightens a dark night scene by one level.
・“Night Scene 2” brightens the image one step brighter than “Night Scene 1”.
It fires continuously while changing the brightness 4 times.
- If you select "HDR", multiple consecutive images with different exposures will be combined to create a pseudo-large dynamic range.
 Multiple exposure 3 times.

(2) Full manual function
You can take photos by manually setting the focal length, exposure, white balance, photo composition method, and number of photos.
・Tap "Focus", "ISO/SS", and "WB" to select auto or manual. 

・Tap "Multiple Exposure" to select the multiple exposure composition method and set the number of composite images (up to 100).
The synthesis methods are as following.
Bright: Screen composit (Screen Blend)
Normal: Comparison(light) composition (Lighten Blend)
Dark: Comparison (dark) composition (Darken Blend)
HDR: Special composition (Special Blend)
(3) Other camera functions
・Zoom function: Achieving a zoom ratio of 40 time
・A camera position: The LCD screen side or the back camera is selectable.
・Focus position specification
・Mesh display
・Aspect selection
・Deviation correction selection
(4) Filter function just after the photography
To display the photograph just after photography and the following filtering are possible by slider operation.
・Purity (sharpness)
・Comparison degree (contrast)
・Luminosity (exposure)
・Display list function
The photos taken in this app is stored in the camera roll and in app itself too and you can see the list of them with the shooting date and time information.
・Image processing function
When you tap the image on the list, it displays the list of filters for image processing.
It has about 70 filters such as 'Brightness','Contrast','Blur','Sharpening','Sepia','Monochrome','Edge detection','Sketch' and so on.

今となってはレベルが低い

OSが新しくなり撮影が強化され、Maxが発売され画質の粗さが目につく。 つまり、課金して撮影レベルを下げる必要はないって事。

すごいな〜

毎回綺麗に満月撮れますよ🌕

不調です

mayu1215 on

今年の6月頃までは、月面の模様も写って月の輪郭もシャープで綺麗だったのに、7月くらいから月面の模様どころか、月の形すらぼやけて全く使えなくなりました。アプリは何年も使っていて、今年1月から今もiPhone12で使用、設定なども触ってません。 何とかなりませんか? これが有料アプリの写真写りなんて、ガッカリです。 古いスマホでももう少し綺麗に写ります。本当に困ってます。設定なども触ってませんが、万が一知らぬ間に触っていたとしたら困るので、設定の方法、設定基準など教えてください。

撮れませんね

月が写ると楽しみでしたが、ぼやけた円しか写りませんでした。月をタップしてもダメでした。どうすれいいのだろう?他のレビュー通り、無理なのかもしれませんね。

荒いけど撮れる

大きな進歩!

まったく使えないアプリに変更された

今までは月はともかく夜景や昼間の風景写真を撮るのに使っていました。ところが変なアップデートした後からまったく使えないものになってしまった。元に戻してください。課金した後に仕様を変えるなんて詐欺ですよ。

本当に使えない

インストールはそこそこ、動いていたが、後日アプリ立ち上がって来ない。

使えない

せっかくの満月... 全然撮れません。 ズームも出来ません。 無料アプリで苦戦していたので 有料のなら、と思って 安易にインストールしたことを後悔しています。

満足です!

端末によるのかな??他の方が言っていたような動作不具合は特に見られませんでした! 夜景モードも綺麗なのでそっちでも使いそうです!肝心の月ですが、通常のカメラよりは月らしく撮れる、と思います。もちろん望遠カメラみたいにクレーターがくっきり!とはいきませんが、お値段に見合うくらいで自分は満足でした。ただ、手持ちだと月の撮影時拡大すると月をタップするのが結構難しかったです笑 スマホを固定できるならしたほうがいいかもです!

消しゴムのカスみたいなのしか撮れない

かうえな on

Japan

見本の画像みたいに綺麗な月が撮れると思って有料だけど使ったのに、スーパームーンですら消しゴムのカスみたい アップにしたらぼやけ過ぎて何の画像か分からないし、普通に撮るより汚くなった。 私の使い方が悪いのかと思ってやり方見ながら何度も試したけど、改善せず。 最悪 もうアンインストールする。 240円損した。 これ良い評価にしてる人サクラか仏様じゃね?
