Edit gotta love the downtoots for providing insight into how cameras work. 😆
Not casting doubt on the picture comparison. Simply providing data that may help arrive at a conclusion.
A digital video camera or photo camera takes the optical image and digitizes it in the form of pixels. Pixels are square. If a pixel is 75% white and 25% black it will fill that pixel in white entirely distorting the original optical image. Its simply a function of a single square pixels inability to display multiple colors at the same time. A pixel can only display a single color.
In doing so it may also translate a similar color to another color. For instance a small amount of yellow may translate to white. Where a single pixel of yellow/white may touch an original white pixel adjacent to it making it look like all pixels are displaying an original swath of white. In reality there would be a clear destinction of white to yellow but when optical is digitized that destinction is removed.
Better cameras will have smaller and more numerous pixels (resolutuion) and a destinction may be obvious but security cameras are notorious for having poor resolution therefore causing distortion.
Thanks for the info. I'm certainly not an expert. To me they looked different enough to make a post without making us all look like absolute morons. Other boards are absolutely on fire shilling and sliding back and forth with this one.
How do you rectify the right picture having round laces and a horizontal stripe while the left picture has flat thick laces and a thicker white stripe that stem from the sole?
I'm not here to tell you how to think. Just providing insight into how cameras work.
IF it turns out to be the same shoe the distortion we are seeing would be as a result of how the digitization process works. And IF that is the case it would happen as a result of the light yellow flame being interpreted by the optics in combination with the imaging sensor within the camera lenses as white then digitizing as square pixels distorting the image and bleeding the "white" flame closer to the White stripe on the shoe.
Same principle would apply to the laces.
But in either scenario and whatever opinion turns out to be correct. The worst thing aboit this discussion is the failure to realize that it would be premature at best and down right horrible judgment to arrive at a conclusion from a zoomed in, grainy and cropped image from a security camera and attempting to compare it to an image taken from an entirely different camera with an entirely different optics and sensor package and case use.
The poster of this thread did nothing wrong. I may have titled it differently. Maybe a title that would lend itself to acquiring help for research rather than a leading title. But that's beside the point however. Posts/threads like this are extremely important for everyone to share their knowledge, learn and honestly cut down some incorrect and preconceived assumptions.

Also the hallway camera uses an IR blast to highlight dark areas which causes reflection on reflective surfaces.

I think it's a reasonable post & sticky, though I disagree with the conclusion.
Spot on.
Posts like these where a lot of discussion is had and knowledge shared are important to sharpen our swords.
This shit makes us look bad honestly.

I wouldn't.

Gotta love pedes who wax eloquent about the obvious
