Simple proof that the Zapruder film is 100% Authentic!

Simple proof that the Zapruder film is 100% Authentic!

Over at the Ed Forum, there is a few threads pushing that the Zapruder film is faked and the latest "proof" comes from Sandy Larsen, Sandy believes that because Zapruder frame 310 and frame 311 have background elements with varying focus and/or motion blur as compared to the Limo, this must mean that the film was altered. As far as I can tell Sandy believes the reason for this "anomaly" is to hide the Limo stop but a technical explanation of how this was done and the reason for this selective blurring is never explained?

As the Limo travels down Elm, Zapruder pans his camera and attempts to keep the Limo within the frame but because Zapruder just had a hand held camera, his panning was naturally erratic, so the limo within the frame drifts/jerks left and right and up and down but by examining each example of conflicting blur, we see that every motion of Zapruder's handheld camera is directly linked to the Limo and each stationary or moving background object and this provable per object independent motion blur is definitive proof of the films authenticity.

These are the two frames that Sandy presents as evidence of alteration(EDIT I replaced the Zapruder frames because Sandy used the Costello frames which with oversaturated colour and a silly distortion are not worth any serious scientific examination), and we can see the people in the background have become a blur, whereas the limo stays in focus?
As Zapruder horizontally pans to the right he is more or less matching the speed of the limo and the Limo stays in focus but in the following frames Zapruder randomly pans right and up, so as the people in the background are independently moving diagonally down towards Elm as opposed to Zapruder's camera simultaneously panning upwards creates motion blur on the background runners, these alternate opposite movements create scientifically accurate motion blur and on a frame by frame basis no less and this level of infinite precision exists within every side by side frame where this "anomaly" is present. Additionally if you look closely at these two frames it's clear that the frame with the background runners showing motion blur has the limo crisp and when the background is sharp, the Limo and it's occupants show a small amount of motion blur. This highly dynamic co-ordinated relationship between Zapruder's random camera moves and the motion blur of each and every object that he filmed is something that cannot be recreated in a lab, the harmonious motion blur seen on each and every object in the Zapruder film is it's greatest proof. Thanks Sandy!



Let's see how these independent objects(camera, background people and Limo) behave in the preceding frame Z309 as compared to Z310 and here we see the angular velocity of Zapruder's camera is slightly exceeding the Limo's speed as it moves down Elm street but this time with next to zero vertical deviation as expected the people in the background who are equally moving down and to the right, stay in approximately similar focus.

Simple proof that the Zapruder film is 100% Authentic!
If everything was so up and up with that film...
Why was it suppressed and lied about for so many years?

Seriously? A man's head violently exploding is graphically caught on film, what do you think should have happened with the film? Would you want people to have access to film of one of your loved ones being killed?

Anyway, the film was understandably suppressed for many years and what was probably the first general public viewing was on the Geraldo Rivera TV show;


Years earlier and what was possibly the first limited public viewing was at the Shaw trial, a clueless Garrison used the Zapruder film to demonstrate a conspiracy by the "back and to the left" movement. And here we are more than half a century later, back to square one, and the latest conspiracy Kooks have simply run out of ideas and without the vaguest knowledge of celluloid film manipulation are making all sorts of unprovable claims, that ironically completely undermine what the original film erroneously suggests. -sigh-

And getting back to your suppressed comment, even though the original film wasn't initially shown publicly, we have Life magazine who one week later published many key events from the Zapruder film and to manipulate Zapruder frames outside of the printed frames where basically nothing happens makes no sense and these alterations have to conform to the harmoniously flow of the frames which we have now. In conclusion there simply wasn't enough time to do any alterations, wysiwyg.







And don't forget the Warren report (CE885) which published over 150 consecutive Zapruder full frames from Z171 through to Z334, and includes the ghost images seen in the sprocket area.

Seriously? 
John Mytton seems to come on routinely as the chief cook and bottle washer around here.
Yes...seriously.
Dan Rather was among the privileged few press correspondents that were given a private showing of the film back when it was solely in the hands of the Time-Life outfit. Few know what he reported..."Upon viewing the president's head shot---JFK could be seen slumping forward." Is that what we see in that film? Maybe he saw a different copy? ???

Z. Film hidden away for years, limo whisked away that same day to be cleaned up and repaired, the body whisked away that same day, a mafia thug kills arrested suspect before he can talk, and the “magic bullet” theory…
Very, very good reasons to conclude there was a cover-up from the top down…

Yes, John, I agree with you 100% on this. This is probably the only thing I agree with you on as I'm a dye-in-the-wool "conspiracist" (I hate that word but I'm too lazy to think of anything else).

The problem with this case is there are plenty of more obvious pieces of evidence to show that the case is conspiracy. This does NOT mean, though, that every single godxxxxed piece of evidence was faked or altered. The unedited, unaltered film (the one we see today) proves conspiracy, but that never seems to be enough for many of the "everything and the kitchen sink too" CTers who think that way.

It's silly and ridiculous the way these people think something was faked, and then on top of that 20 other things also needed to be faked to make the first thing fake. So yes, congratulations on getting this right.

This is proof that the Z-film was not altered. Ant Davison has done some amazing work in this area including the clip below.
That the Nix and Zapruder films are perfectly synchronised is ably demonstrated in this following Gif

I just checked out Anthony Davison’s good work... very nice...
Most of us probably missed this one at the end... He’s got a scope...
