You don't think many of the people in Los Angeles (Hollywood) who owned
cameras would know how to create fake pictures???

Did you believe "King Kong"?

Hint: Double-expose Speed Graphic plates, or rewind and re-shoot roll film.
Shoot the UFO model or ghostly apparition first in the top of the frame
against an unlit black background so as not to expose the rest of the film.
The dupes can watch you expose the film (the second time) and take it to the
drugstore with 'no chance' to manipulate it.

And how many 'video' cameras do you think were around in 1942 ?

Good point. There were no motion picture films way back then. rolls

Video and motion picture are not synonymous

TV cameras at that time were VERY large beasts and there
was no video tape.

Fact is the beast that would be available to even a wealthy amateur
and most newsreel cinematographers was 16mm film. Film stock was
relatively expensive , especially in colour and film speeds were low.
Getting useful shots at night was well nigh impossible. Most of the
alleged film of night attacks in WW2 was faked afterwards.

If you see 'stunning' video from that period the chances are its
faked.

Stunning is relative.

Look at genuine 16mm and the difference is obvious.

Nothing you do is useful. You very rarely even come up with a good idea,
and when the blind squirrel principal does kick in (astoundingly,
you've seem to even defeat random chance with your incompetence), you
manage to cock it up so badly that what might have been a useful thing
in a normal person's hands turns to low-grade fertilizer.

Those are your two claims to fame. Being a complete flake who can't
keep even the simplest of things on track for any significant period of
time, and being an absolute moron when it comes to understanding what's
useful to the piloting community, and implementing it.

Not to killfile.

It sounds like a self description of "Tom." Did his psychiatrist tell
him all this?

When I first saw (not read) this I thought you had typed "breasts". If
they were, it would probably have been easier then to get men to look
into the camera (as they most likely already were) and say
"Cheese" (or something else). ;-)

The Battle of Los Angeles, also known as The Great Los Angeles Air Raid,
is the name given to a incident that occurred less than three months
after the United States entered World War II as a result of the Japanese
Imperial Navy s attack on Pearl Harbor. At that time Many un identified
flying objects entered the skies over Los Angeles California. These UFOS
were seen by millions. These UFOS became *the target of the aerial
barrage as they were thought to be an attacking force from Japan.

What else were they to think ?

Amazing Photos and video of this event exist..This UFO incident might
offer us the best actual photographic proof?

There were plenty of short leftover ends of 35mm movie film available. The
studios/unions(?) wouldn't allow a camera to run with less than a certain
footage of film in it.

The 35mm Leica was designed specifically to use them up. It came with film
cassettes you could load yourself and a template to cut the half-width
leader its bottom-loading film feed system required.

My uncle was able to find 8mm color film in New Guinea.

They already had their costar and all the wannabe actresses in the costume
and makeup crews showing off their stuff.

Not much video being recorded in late 1941.
