  • The full moon is a popular subject for photography, even with smartphones.
  • A comparison was made between a Samsung S25 smartphone and a Seestar S50 smart telescope.
  • The Samsung S25 performed well, capturing main maria, craters like Tycho, and a sharp outline of the moon.
  • The Seestar S50 provided more detail, showing smaller craters, better surface textures, and improved contrast.
  • Key differences are due to aperture, stability & tracking, and dedicated optics in the telescope.
  • Smartphones are sufficient for social media sharing, but telescopes offer more detailed views for lunar geography enthusiasts.
