It would be extremely difficult to record a UFO, either on camera or on video.  That is probably why we have so many “fuzzy” pictures.  Even when I have plenty of preparation time, some of my shots (animals, scenery, buildings, people) still come out less than perfect.  In the “heat of the moment”, is suspect most people have their cameras set up wrong, of jiggle them due to adrenaline rush.

Having said that, it is interesting that the hundreds of thousands of UFO photos have yet to produce a single clear image.  Even my own record of photos is hundreds of times better than that.

Did you analize later possibility of authentity of a UFO? Like speed, returnability, speed of height changes? R.

Did you see them all to make such a statement?

a) not exactly a fair test, I can wield a real camera 10^200th times better than that virtual one

b) UFO sitings normaly take place over minutes, not seconds (time enough for someone to fetch a camera and aim it at least)

c) UFO spotters are set up to take images right when they see them and still you don`t see anything convinceing, they must all be consistently bad at taking photos

d) someone actualy set up a webcam array that was programmed to record any changes in the sky in a known UFO hotspot, they got nothing other than birds ,insects , the odd scudding cloud and aircraft

e) all the years I have spent sky watching and meteor spotting I have never seen anything that was unexplainable (often just checking with binocs solved any slight confusion)

d & e lead me to think that a UFO is more a social phenomenon than ET picking up some chips on his way to Barnards star,  it also constantly amazes me how many people claim to have spotted a UFO that is nothing more than distant lights that they resolved with the help of binoculars to "mysterious" red and green flashing lights with a fixed white lamp , for some strange reason ET seems to use internationally recognised aircraft navigation light colours and flash frequencies, probably gets em fitted at Cydonia before visiting Earth to avoid getting prosecuted for not being properly lit, half the UFO cult is (imo) wanting to see something unusual, the other half is ignorance as to what is legitimatly up there.
