Personally I find arguing about whether it 'looks round' or not to be a bit unproductive. I'll admit that though it may 'look round', that is a terrible standard of evidence. But if a FE scenario, wouldn't the camera be seeing for more of the earth? like, all of it?
why would they cover it up tho, the goverment and the scientists
thats my biggest hold up with the theory
Yea, fisheyes for certain distort images.
Agreed, that was the second part of my earlier question.
The earth doesnt look round
Lol
The thing is about fish eye lenses though, is that since the resulting video or image taken with them is so distorted, it is not possible to make any claim of it original composition. for FE or GE purposes.
Not without a fishey lens of cgi
You can do a fisheye reversal on the imagery
It comes out flat
I highly doubt that.
That you can revese it
Well its real.
Look it up
That is for photos.
I have a video somewhere of defishing a rocket video
Id have to find it
Just curious how does gravity function with the flat earth model
Okay, I see your point. I find this a bit suspicious though. The process in the link you gave (and in in some others I found) shows how images can be manipulated in order to remove the fisheye effect after the image has already been taken. In principle this is fine, but for a standard of evidence I find it weak. This is because there is no direct complement to the specific lens effect. What I mean is that the original pictoral information has been lost. Yes, you can later attempt to reverse the distortion effect, but the original information is lost. A good analogy is this: you have a bucket with a few grains of sand in it (the original information) and then fill the whole bucket with sand (the lens distortion), you then take out most of the sand, but since you don't know how much sand you had originally, you make estimate (the reversing process). Thus you are left with some amount of sand that looks right, but is not really identical to the original. I hope I made my point clear.
The origin Sheppard flight was defished
The gh2 vent cam
Came out flat
Agreed. Its not evidence

High altitude Video and photographs have to be taken from cameras designed to be at that altitude
Otherwise defocus happens
Okay sure, but I still hold that reversing a fisheye lens effect with photo editors is not good evidence.
Its better than claiming the fish eye lens was the curve
Its still not good evidence. Of course dumb round earthers are going to point to a lens distortion as proof.
@Citizen Z how does gravity function with regards to the most commonly accepted flat Earth model
Things fall down
Lol
Density
We dont know the exact cause
Neither do you
You claim a religious belief
