blurred car, blurred background, I don't know what speed it's going but you can bet it's slower than 500mph!

WTF is wrong with you Sicko Perps Anyway?

She's a photojournalist and can obviously afford a decent camera

YES THERE WERE FILM CAMERAS IN 2001 THAT COULD SHOOT THAT FAST!
Maybee not digital cameras but she wasn't using a digital camera was she?

And yes modern digital cameras can shoot even faster if you have the money to spend!

A simple Google search will find Modern Digital Cameras that can shoot individual photos much faster than even a 30FPS video camera but will set you back some serious money

Here is a full resolution digital that shoots 60 FPS in burst mode and it's nearly a year old!

You people are SICK!
so she got an analogue camera to wind film that fast ?

lol

shutter speed and film wind are kinda different things.
even a digital camera has a similar problem.
it has to save info before capturing again.
not even a digital camera could do this. that's the point.
i have a state of the art camera and it could not do this.
it was made in 2008.

in fact analogue and didgital shutter speed is exactly the same.
[400 iso is 400 iso on both - they are the same]

it's winding film and storing data that takes a differing amount of time.

the problem here is not the amount of time it takes
to take one photo, it is the amount of time it takes to get TWO PHOTOS,

in which the plane has barely moved even though it is travelling at 500 mph.

pretending to not uderstand this shows ur true intentions.

only a jreffer would sell such a skanky old treasonous strawman

It comes across like she's saying, "How can you be certain that every action should have an equal opposite reaction, after all, we had never seen a plane crash into a building before so you don't know jeff"


^_^



Keep up the real great research journalism Jeff.

I used to use a 35mm film camera which would take multiple exposures, you didn't have to wind it on each time. But it's still impossible to get an object flying at 500+mph without blurring, she would probably have needed a 1600 or 3200 film. And if she was using a fast film the light would be overexposed, because a fast film needs much less light, it was brilliant sunshine that day.

She never said what film she was using did she? If those negatives showing a plane exist, I'll eat a role of 1600 film!

What does my head in is HOW the panned video shots were done. I'm guessing they were cropped right in from a long shot, then the plane shape added after. It's strange though, because it would have been much easier to have a static shot trained on the tower like Fairbanks.

At 600mph there should be a blur at 30 frames/sec, and certainly anything slower (eg 10 fps.)

I think a lot of these people are just hack professional photographers... they had a shot of the burning towers they could sell to AP for $500 ... or they could add an airplane to the picture and get $50,000... and they figure, why not cash in? Human nature...

I don't mean to beat a dead horse here,
but if she watched this thing come in from out over the statue of liberty like she says ...
how is this all the shots of the plane she took in her experience
of being a pulitzer prize winning photographer?
:ermm:

given the rapidness of the 2 shots, im guessing that she must have had it on a very fast shutter speed, and she must have used a power winder of some sort (they used to be commonly used for shooting action sequences - like sports). here is an example of a souped up version:

Instant High Speed Button When the selector switch is at "S" or "L", it is possible to switch to "H" instantly simply by pressing this instant high speed button. This means sequential shooting at the rate of up to five frames per second is instantly accessible for fast-breaking shots. The instant high speed button also has a lock lever which, when turned to the red dot, prevents use of the instant high speed.

In 1972 Canon launched a Highspeed model with a fixed pellicle mirror that allowed the user to see the subject at all times. Equipped with a motor drive the camera was able to shoot up to 9 frame per second, the highest speed of any motor driven camera at the time.

SHARELLE HICKS, 32, was in Brooklyn Heights watching NY1 and saw the explosion. She rushed out to the Brooklyn Promenade.

''I looked to my left toward the Statue of Liberty and there was a passenger plane. I could see it coming. I couldn't understand why it was so low. The right wing went down. The plane went down and straight into the south tower. It was very deliberate.''

''It was strange that on the Heights you couldn't hear it. You could just see it.''
