My phone is normally worse for color gradients and contrasts than my eyes. Also, normally it has worse nightvision.

But when decreasing the shutter speed, for example in OpenCamera, I get crazy night pics.

I see that when its dark my FPS goes down, I see less frames automatically and totally cant control that.

Could this mechanism be altered, to have even less FPS but more photons in the soup to get brighter sight?

Yes, trying to hack my eyes here. "Getting used to darkness" is normally the pupils getting wider, there are quite some interesting plants to do that but I havent heard of anything altering the brains image processing.

Edit

I learned:

• in Nightsight we use the rod cells, which take longer to send a signal. That way they capture more photons, but the "FPS" is lower
• you can trick your iris naturally to stay open, like the Pirates did (some plants like nightshades also do this, applied locally)
