There are not that many people that even own this equipment.
i think you missed a subtlety of the above gear-porn picture.
i showed up to that particular hill between arlington national cemetery and the iwo jima war memorial, and not only ran into a ton of photographers with professional equipment (not pictured are upwards of twenty or thirty other cameras on tripods, in less optimal spots because we showed up early to get the good spot) but i was there with my friend who has the same camera and lens as me, and we ran into another photographer with the same camera and lens as the both of us.
it's more common than you might think.
You wonder why most spirit photographs are not being captured with this high-tech equipment?
no, i wonder why none are. why every image captured is some blurry, grainy, compressed, horrible image, shot on a camera that was outdated 10 years ago.
and the question's mostly rhetorical. the answer is that it's harder to read into blurry, low-detail smudges and oniony bokeh when your good optics are making smooth bokeh and sharp images, and your sensor is outputting high res, detailed raw data.

Spirits and Aliens: Hoaxes All
I could care less about the "alien" photograph. The vast majority of my experience and understanding is with spirits.
You miss the point, Scott.
Anyone who puts up such a photo with that explanation without first verifying it as bona fide is showing their lack of discipline and their gullibility.
You are undisciplined and gullible. Any claims you make are therefore suspect at best.
Despite your protests to the contrary you have not shown any evidence that your orbs are what you say they are. Right now, Scott, your pictures are hoaxes. Your claims are false.
If you have any, now would be a good time to produce some actual verifiable, demonstrable evidence. You can forget scripture. Most here interpret scripture different than you and the rest of us are atheist so your scripture don't mean shit.

well, artifacts of various camera and lighting conditions, generally involving particulates or bugs.
the bit with the photoshopped face? that's a hoax.
it's kind of like the nessie fin photo, supposedly "enhanced" by JPL or whatever, which is much less impressive without the blatant fakery:

Correct Behavior
This is not useful behavior in a discussion. Reasonable questions have been asked of you. If you are unable to answer them in a reasonable fashion this isn't the place for you.
In addition, it is the behavior of a child who finds themselves unable to answer the issues so if that isn't how you wish to present yourself I suggest that you find a better way to respond.

Are you claiming that all the frames with faces in this video was somehow photoshopped?
no, i'm claiming this one was photoshopped:
because it obviously is. you even agreed in Message 959.
What happened to bugs with human faces or your fish theory?
i'm not saying it is a fish. it's obviously not a fish. i'm saying it looks a lot more like one than a human. the point is that you can see what you want in a blurry, pixelated smear, shot with a low shutter speed.
You obviously do not know what it is. This is because you do not know spirits.
i know it behaves exactly like a flying insect, shot with a slow shutter speed.

You want to see a lot of high-end photographic equipment, look on the sidelines of any professional football game!
Lots of other places the big lenses show up too. They're pretty common now--lots of good equipment out there.

Spirits think that pro football sucks, and never come to games. Otherwise, you would see better pictures of them.
They don't like the cleavage on the cheerleaders either.

I do agree that image had been highlighted. But the other photograph and video has not been touched and are not a hoax. This is what a spirit looks like in flight. The spirit form leaves a trail and becomes blurred. Anyone who knows spirits knows this.

professional, they regulate access a bit. college? college is incredible. like, it's a line of 400 f/2.8s ($10K in glass!) from one endzone to the other.

I would not be fooled by an education nor the ability to formulate a sentence. Educated people happen to be some of the most convincing liars in the world.

I believe it was made of bread.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
