Kwaynem sent me a text awhile ago about this, so went into the bedroom, shut the door. Pitch black. Could not see anything but a red led light on a DTV receiver. Got a decent pic but one has to be rock steady as the "shutter speed" is greatly increased. New Iphone 15 Pro Max.
Is that a crack pipe
On your dash?
it’s paint pens markers and a ink pen that I keep forgetting to take out of my shirt pocket when I leave work that cubby will get full then I take them back into work with me lol
Yes this is called aperture and this is not new technology. It's a principle of cameras that has existed since the beginning of their existence.
Even on an old 35mm film camera, if you set it up on a tripod outside at night (with some light nearby such as stars), you can leave the shutter open for a very long time and you'll get a picture that is not "dark".

I used to lock open my shutter on the Canon F1 at fireworks displays and use a piece of black cardboard to hold across the lens until the air burst, when the cardboard would be moved to the side for a second or two. Made for some pretty neat photo's.
Since phones don't have a shutter, I'm curious how that operation works. When I went into the dark bedroom to take my test pic, I had to hold the phone still for 2 seconds. All computer generated I suspect and there is no physical shutter?
There is no "mechanical shutter" but there is still a "shutter" that works with the digital image sensor.
