No. You don't leave flash shadows on walls from people who have been vaporized, in a firebombing. (My father was in Nagasaki.) And it takes a raid of hundreds of bombers to fire-bomb a city.
The plane flew across the bombed city and got the hell away. The photo of the mushroom cloud was taken from the the forward compartment or tail gun position on the bomber. They may have yawed temporarily to obtain a line of sight.
The "nuke scare" video was footage from a real test. The darkness of the image was because the camera was stopped down to prevent the film from being overexposed from the nuclear flash. (There are no stars visible in the Moon shots for the same reason; the brightly lit Moon surface would have exposed all the film if it had been stopped open enough to image the stars.)
The other comments:
The houses are all full scale real construction. No models would have such minute detail and show such detailed air flows. Why make scale models when the point was to find out how things behaved in real life? You have falsehood on the brain.
The camera was mounted in a sufficiently sturdy enclosure. Perhaps a concrete embrasure or a tank bolted to a ground pad. That part was not rocket science. And the camera was not pointed at the blast, so nothing would have vaporized the lens. (Other camera shots have taken frontal views of the detonations without problems.)
