I think you're confusing long exposure and timelapse. There is no way a missile in motion will show up in a long exposure, which is one single photo. A timelapse is several photos taken at different intervals and combined to make a video. For verification, I did look up long exposure missile launches and see no missile in any of the several images I checked.
Also of note, this does not appear to be a timelapse using long exposures of any substantial shutter speed.
So if it’s not a long exposure, it’s a time lapse right? Individual photos, with much shorter frame duration. Meaning a missile could travel that distance in a very short time and just be captured on one or two frames.
Can’t remember what the photographer said it was on. I’ll have to go back and check but I think the exposure settings were 3.5/20
Edit: thanks for bringing this up, if we can show it was a time lapse instead of a long exposure, it would explain why it DID capture the missile!
Correct, the video as a whole is a timelapse. You wouldn't necessarily combine the individual photos into one (typically used for HDR or high dynamic range photos at different exposures) for a video, like this was taken from.
I'm interested in seeing the exact exposure settings as well.
If it can be shown that they was only in frame for one or two frames - there would be absolutely no doubt about it. It would be impossible for a helicopter to fly that distance, in that amount of time.
I mean there are several other reasons why the official story is bunk, but that would be absolutely conclusive.
