Often I get comments slamming witness submitted UFO videos for just showing a blob of light, or the typical out of focus orb, or just generally showing no detail.
I understand the frustration. Believe me when I say that on average 1 out of every 10 videos I look at passes (often barely) for featuring in a dissemination video.
Yet, when not a hoax, the witnesses who submit the videos truly believe they have seen something anomalous and extraordinary. In submitting, they are looking to us, the UFO/UAP community to examine and make sense of what they saw.
So what to do when they submit something that really shows no details, and just seems another generic blob or orb of light..?
How do we avoid lazy debunking or just disregarding the footage as trash..?
First, it's important to realize that cellphone cameras are superb for selfies, and un-zoomed local environment photos and videos; lenses are small, and never with an optical zoom - instead relying on digital zooming which after a small percentage of use leaves the video/photo pixelated & smoothed/blurred.
Knowing this, it is best to look towards the context of a specific segment of footage, relying on witness description details coupled with an analysis of the behavior of the captured object.
Something I bear in mind is the description of the 40 foot long tic-tac UFO. During the day, what would this look like at a height of 20,000 feet..? Even with a powerful telescopic zoom it would look like a blimp, or a tubular white balloon - as it was described as being featureless.
And if at night, and the thing was self-illuminated, the same conventional explanations could be applied. So it's important to not throw out the baby with the bath water and rush to judgmental conclusions even if at the outset the footage looks unclear.
And finally...
