Let us know the make and model of your camera too, my husband is a photographer and would be able to say what the difference would be in your equipment, from a professional point of view!

Hi there wormhole!
thanks.
But it is not so much about "debunking it" for me...
Ive never been one to "debunk" things..
in fact.. Ive actually always been one who believes more than they prolly should. lol
Many ppl will call hoax... while I am still sitting there believing it. LOL
Its really just about truth for me.. for myself really...
I dont really want to convince anyone of anything..
Id just like to know for myself, and if some of you would like to know as well, I would be more than happy to share.
Here is my reasoning behind this object being Venus~
1:~ The kid taking the video states that he is looking west...
Right where you look to see Venus (which is extremely big and bright this time of year) many other people also mistake this for a "UFO" ( there have been at least 5 UFO sightings in my area recently that have all turned out to be Venus)
2:~ If you listen, towards the end of the 2nd video i think....
You will here him say something to the effect of ( "well it moved, it was up over there when i started filming, now its moved down over this way")..
(apparently not aware or not thinking about the Earth rotating)
3:~ he also states that it was in the sky for about an hour and a half;
90 minutes is almost the exact amount of time i see it every night before it goes below the horizon.
4:~ I have taken videos of other lights in the sky, (helicopters, planes, etc) , and when zoomed in enough, they do indeed look diamond shaped.
There are many things that say to me this is in fact the Planet Venus,
(though it would be much cooler if it werent, like the video in istanbul!!!)
The camera I will be using is a Canon, Im not positive of model at the moment as it belongs to a friend who just paid over $900 dollars for it,
It is one of the newest ones if that helps... But once I have the specs I will post them up for you, and pics of the camera itself if you like.
the exact camera model will not be needed to duplicate this, as long as it is a good quality camera.
I assure you.
Blessings
Andy
