When I was a kid in the 1970s, I read UFO magazines and books, and saw the blurry pictures and the eye-witness accounts.

Now, everyone carries a high-resolution color camera that can take photos in low light, and we still see the same damn blurry pictures.

What we all need is high security clearances—so we have a fair shot to see the best photos and videos and make a fair determination.

Shutter speed vs object speed and camera shake.
Atmospheric haze.
Normal lens rather than tripod mounted telephoto, extreme enlargement.
Lenses of less than stellar quality.
Long distance to object from camera.
Pedestrian grade camera gear.
Excited photographer making a "hip shot".

Once people get set up really close in advance with really good equipment in ideal weather and perfect lighting conditions with the camera mounted on a rigid base, you'll see great photos of them.
