GOOD LUCK -- & practice on birds and moving objects first....& control your breathing on high-zoom (or even hold your breath a little).... *fingers crossed*!
since you're often dealing with objects that are bright, luminous, or in stark contrast to what's around it, your auto-focus will NOT be your friend....! it will misinterpret what you know you really want to focus on and capture....
tip: do NOT use auto-focus - practice using manual focus so you're good at it & when the time comes to actually use it - it's not a problem and you can do it quickly, smoothly and capture certain shots by "priority".... you can improve your clips 1000X by some practice and prioritizing what you're doing....
i realize what's involved in quick filming (i'm a videographer) - there are simple protocols you can follow to allow quick, rushed shooting...just setting them out and making sure you follow them - otherwise, you might as well just take a good photo or watch it in all its glory
it's a shame you weren't able to actually capture its movement in relation to the environment, and then try to go in for a temporary zoom... break the footage into sections as you're filming according to some priorities of filming....
as it is, it's difficult to ascertain anything with it -- lesson learned, take some notes & make some changes next time you film -- develop something of a protocol for yourself then you'll capture footage that has all the necessary ingredients...
Hi there thank you for reply,i find when filming Ufobjects you can not do everything people want,most sightings are only secs and you must try and get as much as you can before the event ends,another thing,clarity is what we all seek with ufobjects and it is very hard to get,why?.
But will take note,and be ufo hunting for that quality.
Thank you for your reply,excellent experience it is,i was with a friend when it came in to sight asking him the time what he was seeing his thoughts on the object,i have its movement and pictures of the object i did a frame by frame and will post it up when ready,anything that helps i will try.
i saw an object (without any camera on me, unfortunately) fairly recently in the early morning, just around dawn on a crisp, clear morning, moving directly from south to north (i wouldn't be surprised if it was a precise S-N path), shining brilliantly in the blue for a while before it completely veiled itself/plunged into an atmospheric wave. it was a glorious sight. very unfortunate i was unprepared for it, but it will be remembered nonetheless...!
with Venus drawing closer & closer to the earth over the next few months & becoming quite brilliant in the western sky, i have a feeling there will more more sightings, as it is a profound Venusian effect. keep your eyes to the skies this fall & winter & keep extra batteries warm...
you jumped to a conclusion there - i'm sure you know what stars & planets look like; i mentioned venus because there are some that theorize the proximity of planets and star systems affect the frequency and behaviour of extraterrestrial objects, esp. those of the inner planets......
venus is approaching an extremely splendid display as well as very close proximity over the next few months.
you and i have been very busy lately! ha ha ha by this time, i bet you clearly know when an object in the sky is a baloon, a satellite, a lantern, a star,a planet or an unidentified object, right! good job. keep on looking.
What you see is what you get,with hand held cam handshake heartbeat and all,as for focus auto-focus i like with moving objects it is aways snaping pictures every sec,and we wil go over frame by frame on this footage.
wow whats the song? nice footage

it's all in Quality, not necessarily Quantity -- so go man, go !
we're moving closer toward a truth in this world --- every sighting you capture adds to it.... can't wait to see it !

Yes it was a excellent experience,if you look at other videos of this object you will see the movement.

Yep i will do keep my eyes to the skies then,but i do know what and where stars and planets are and what they look like friend.

Looks like a satellite, a star or a planet. The video shakes alot and the roof reference is useless if you do not use a tripod and stay still.

Listen Skywatcher, I commented on your last video about the focus. You said it was auto-focus, but surely you can manually focus the camera?
Also, would it be possible to put your camera on a solid object to stop the handshake effect when filming?
