I always ask myself when i see those UFO videos (and when i know they are genuine): why didn't he/her lowered the exposition at least for a second to see less overexposed lights? why didn't he/her zoomed out to see the place or the ambient? For that i STATE that there MUST BE a protocol for recording phenomena or UFOs.We all know that in some situations they can't be recorded with a list of "pre-requisites" but in "stable" and opportunistic scenarios, this should be done: Let's start with the principle: - Clean lenses before recording - Don't simply take a photo or a video of the phenomenon itself, but show your surroundings so the video can also be validated or a reference can be used to measure - Record primarily at the max resolution (4K/8K) - If your phone/device has, use optical zoom or take one more device that has and zoom it at its max - Always share raw footage, without edit or at least add it so we can use metadata. - Don't simply post a video or photo here thinking that this is the center of the internet. Post also on YouTube for high-res replay. - And remember that media posts have lowered quality. submitted by /u/InternalBad1012 [link] [comments]
