One of the craziest break downs I’ve seen so far…

Be nice to know what shutter speed the photographer who captured the bullet speeding past former President Trump’s head was. We could calculate the velocity of the bullet, or a close approximation with that information.
My guess it was 1/1000th of a second. But high quality cameras which offer even higher speeds are now relatively common.
Or, the pic is fake.
What’s with this crap where we can show Trump’s blood but, GAWD FORBID, we can’t show the dead shooter? What a squishy society we tolerate.
plenty of stills of actual bullets seemingly frozen in time. kinda dumb to claim it’s fakes.
The ability to manipulate images is so good today, it is nearly impossible to determine fake from reality. However, the motivation for a fake such as this seems rather low.
High, not low.
Many people seek fame.
I’m not saying it’s fake. But I’m dubious.
Sure.
Okay.
Bye.
My current digital camera goes to 1/32000th with the electronic shutter.
Assume a velocity of 3,000 fps for the bullet. Let's use the 1/4000 shutter speed.
3000 ft ÷ 4000 = .75 of a foot, or about 9 inches of bullet travel. So it would be a 9" nearly horizontal line in the picture.
