Description

First ever post. I've recently been changing some photography equipment and finally got around to trying night vision the cheaper way with SiOnyx kit. I tinker with video editing and had recently uploaded a couple videos using the Aurora cameras. Then last week during hours of paperwork I took a break and tried the Pro outside in my crappy city 'garden'.

Maybe you will see this and write it off immediately! But I'm not sure what I recorded and given that I rarely see anything odd, I thought I'd try and edit the footage, highlight details and share my experience and feelings at the time. The full video is 9 minutes long and 800MB+ so the one below is a hugely cut down version. Use the link for more explanation and examination of footage, if you prefer. I see comments about videos that are 10 seconds long, have no context or location details. Hopefully my efforts on the full edit mean something at least, even if it is just a damn balloon! But there was no noise, no lights, no wind... I'm used to being around drones.

I don't have any adverts on this channel, it was just for astrophotography and maybe doing something with it in the future. Full disclosure - I run another channel but there shouldn't be any link to it so this is not about traffic or revenue.

Any questions then ask away! It might spur something I hadn't considered.
