Moreover, not only the center position but also the rotation of the camera is linked! You can set the composition.
You can position the composition while watching the smart screen without looking at the dark monitor or viewfinder of a camera that cannot see stars.
2) Horizontal installation of the smartphone on the camera! As it is still up to the sky and looking up, the neck will not hurt; you can comfortably decide the composition by looking at the screen from above! !
This is the best way to check the constellation with the smartphone attached to the camera.
Moreover, accuracy is high precision. (It depends on smartphone performance)
Since smartphone orientation can be changed (horizontal, vertical), you can also use it while looking up as before.

Changelog
V3.2.1:The bug fix.
“Planetarium mode” had the “AR(expansion actuality) ” function. When I turn on the switch, a camera picture of smart phone is synthesized, and is shown to a StarsPhoto screen.
This picture matches the size of the StarsPhoto screen automatically.
When the daytime is the brightness the scenery suits in a phone’s camera by this AR function, a starry sky at night at its location can be simulated, so location hunting can make the picture of the a star beforehand.
