Expert RAW astro mode is currently limited to the Galaxy S22 series, hence, other Galaxy device users have to wait until the feature arrives officially. In the meantime, they can still capture great star photos using the Samsung Camera app’s Pro mode in your Galaxy. [Camera >> Pro photo >> Focus – Infinite >> Exposure time – 30 secs]
