This is the set of links for the camera setup as Courtney has suggested.
The main camera converted with lens-
The IR filter (select 58 mm)-
Filter to return it to visible spectrum-
And finally a good tripod-
This gets you the raw footage.
You can also buy Adove Premiere here-
Anyone let me know if anything should change and I'll correct this thread. Anyone who purchased the setup, would love to hear your experience or else if you found a variation that worked well.
Again, this is all based on the setup suggested here-
Thanks!
Can anyone help with tips for cellphone recording? Early on, Courtney indicated that we could do this without purchasing all this expensive equipment by using our cellphones. I have purchased a real IR filter and lens clip for my phone to get started inexpensively. But I haven't seen any instructions for this.
Is this method still deemed workable? This would really be the way to spread it, if EVERYONE could do this with their phones... Otherwise who can afford to buy all this equipment and learn how to use it correctly, other than professionals? Few.
From what I understand, Courtney doesn't have much to elaborate on for the cell phone procedures. The camera set up is a lot more tedious so he wants to expose in detail. But I think for a cell phone it's more like "take the two sides of 3d glasses, blue-red together in front of the lens, point at sky, record" - and I suppose all the LUTs and Adobe Premiere stuff applies. I'm curious has anyone at all had any luck with this that they can report? I haven't started.
It looks like life pixel will not let me invest gift certificates. I'm interested in this way because it's just a good way to get me started on the financial commitment. We will see.
I've started cell phone shooting with a real IR filter and iphone clip on lense holder and am now going through the footage in Premiere, so I'll report back when I have results...
I successfully captured some objects on my iPhone 12 mini. Thus far, I only use the stacked blue and red lenses that I removed from a pair of 3-D glasses.
This one is flying across the top of the screen. To me, it looks cigar-shaped. This video is playing at 0.1x normal speed. I filmed it in Slow Motion, and I set the camera to HD 240fps. I used the roof of the house as a reference point.
Unfortunately, the upload to Reddit doesn't do the video justice. It's much crisper on my phone.
Eloy, how much time did you spend in toral before getting that video? Was it like your very first try? Was it like in 5 minutes? 20? etc
It went down like this:
I stacked the 3D lenses and stepped outside at around 2PM when the sun was just beyond my front yard (faces East). I pointed the camera straight up and recorded 20 seconds at a time. I shot 4 videos and I got objects flying by REALLY FAST in in 2 of the 4 videos. I get more of them over my house than I do at work. It's probably because I work within 2 miles of Lackland Air Force Base. My home is about 11 miles from work.
Once I got these things on video, it completely changed my reality. I got over it pretty quickly. I showed the videos to my wife, as she is a photographer, graphic designer an video editor. She can't come to ANY reasonable explanation for these objects (and she's not into the UFOs, aliens, or even sci-fi).
Oh yeah, also, I filmed in HD at 240fps. My iPhone only has 4K in regular speed, and I haven't been able to capture ANYTHING in 4K at regular speed. Not even a blur.
That is still significant! Wow I wonder if the phones do a generally better job. The image was pretty smooth.
If I understand correctly, you're filming at 1080p as compared to 4k, and at 240fps as compared to 120fps.
It probably means that you capture less UAP vehicles than Courtney's method captures, but you still capture on a regular basis (back yard 1 minute, not hike the mountain and wait 5 days type of effort). This method, you don't even have to experiment with LUTs or a graphics computer. Plus, the motion is nice and smooth making it a bit more attractive to the general audience.
I imagine this works similar with the Iphone 7, the Samsungs, etc, post-2020 models.
It convinces me that we should generally start with this phone method. If we feel like we've captured enough and we want to go to the next step, we go to the *much* more expensive method Farsight uses.
Please post more if possible. I wonder if odysee is a better platform, they probably won't block them like reddit. Reddit is also becoming a significant shill.
I've started paying for coupon codes. Eventually I should accumulate the amount for one of these suckers.
Here's kind of a short way that might be presented to the public (minimum reading required)

i just bought an smartphone from OnePlus 10 pro, it is the few, or at least one of the two models that have 4k 120fps at 50mp, great optical zoom and almost $700 created by Hasselblad. is the most cheap in the market that i could find since im not going to purchase mirrorless camera for now. Later yes.
I videoed my ufo on a old version Samsung galaxy S10plus - daytime - no filter - Super Slow Motion setting.
Although the FS protocols had not come out as yet when I was filming, I shot in super slow motion because of Nick Pope. (LOL) - He had commented on some archival footage that the UK Government had whereby on film, they had captured a UFO but it was in one frame, and then gone. If they had not evaluated the film frame by frame they would never have seen that craft in normal playback mode.
When you shoot in slow motion, it gives you more frames per second to view individually.
On the phones, it may only give you 4-8 seconds of filming time, but the video on playback is longer - 14 to 20 seconds - depending on phone.
When I video from my phone I keep consistently filming one video after another. The only space between each video is the time the phone camera has to process the video in camera. This can be a second or two.
This does a few things - I have short workable videos in edit, and I have before and after videos - shot in sequence which does give some legitimacy to the fact that all the videos taken are unedited and time stamped as a cluster.
My UFO video capture was sandwiched between others with only a second between them on their timestamps and capture data.
Drawback is that there is no audio in super slow motion.
There is no functioning zoom - for a clear picture you have to set the focus before filming. You can zoom but it is not exactly clear - it will try to auto focus. This happened to me when testing out the camera settings, but this was when I got the video of the UFO - and I did not see the UFO on the view finder. It was only after going through the clips I noticed it.
Keep the footage on your phone or devise, even if you download the copy.
Keep copies of the unedited video off the computer as well. Throw it onto a UUSB or other storage devise.
