You would think that someone would have got a UFO so detailed you could see the occupants peering out their cockpit windows

Check out the link in # 29. It's close to your requirements.

While I consider myself agnostic on the subject one thing I'd like to point out.

Most cameras, esp. camcorders, don't focus well at night.
A few points of light isn't enough to allow the camera mechanism to focus.
Unless the taker had presence of mind to manually set the focus at infinity the camera will 'hunt'. Not many folks would stay calm enough to do that. I probably wouldn't.

The trouble today is photos can be photoshopped so easily that any picture has to be seen w/ a large dose of salt.

Notice in the video on #29 that each view of the object has new elements along the leading edge of the “craft.” However as you view this object, never do you see any rotation or change in aspect. You always see the object differently in each view, suggesting that this is a model made to look like a UFO suspended from a string. This is the old dinner plate on a string trick.

I also question the focus problems of the camera. Each view will focus on the object, but never come to a perfect focus. The object is always out of focus the same way in each view. This suggests that the camera is being manually focused, but never allowed to get a perfect focus. Such perfect focus would reveal the fake aspect of the model.

I have a video camera that is fifteen years old and it never had problems with focus in dark situations. When there was a total eclipse of the moon, we got wonderful videos. And, our hand held video was nearly rock solid. This jumpy bumpy stuff also makes me suspect.
