The reason for doing so is that with two lenses side by side, you can see how far away the object being photographed is.<br /><br />The researchers went out looking for orbs deliberately, but on not a single picture did the same orb occur on both pictures. This supports the hypothesis that orbs are very small bits of dust very close to the camera lens being strongly illuminated by the camera flash.<br /><br />Orbs are also seen on low-end night vision equipment. This is for the same reason; said NV kit always has an infrared illuminator set quite close to the main lens (even in the centre of some weapons scopes!), so the same illumination criteria apply.<br /><br />If you separate lens and flash unit, as cave photographers learned to do long ago, then the orb effect always disappears; it also disappears on long exposure shots where flashes are not used. Orbs are dust, nothing more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-237099216792432999.post-41780189473637142452011-09-01T07:22:38.179-07:002011-09-01T07:22:38.179-07:00It obviously needs a good vacuuming!It obviously needs a good vacuuming!Nick Redfernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07199813303416083671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-237099216792432999.post-22808480936544408182011-09-01T04:41:42.162-07:002011-09-01T04:41:42.162-07:00Well, Nick...because of the way digital cameras wo...Well, Nick...because of the way digital cameras work all sorts of things can show up as "orbs". Dust particles, rain drops, even small insects. This doesn't mean EVERY photo of an "orb" can be explained away in natural terms. But there is a qualitative difference when the or is PARANORMAL that one can actually see.<br /><br />What you have are dust particles. Sorry :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
