What is not on the light signal post in Hughes? chris

Jack, The #2 man is two different people. Watch this clip. One moves away from the curb and the other towards it, as he steps in front of Betzner. chris P.S. Can we get back to the Towner film and her positioning? I believe Betzner's photo does play apart in this, but not from this angle. More coming.

Robin, Taking off his jacket is a possibility. How can Betzner take 2 portrait photos when his elbows are in landscape position? chris

Betzner on the move. chris

Jack, I put the square box around RR man. This is a composite with my film. chris

Here is some corroborating testimony that would correspond to the previous photo posted and might account for the missing "time". Thanks to Dr. John Costella for this tremendous book of information. chris

One explanation for the missing "time" might be the path traveled making the turn. Sharper turn "less time", Wider turn "more time". chris

Ed, This footnote is also from Myer's study. I believe this is very important when discussing the Towner scenario. chris

Ed, 5 frames for you. chris

Finally, The TEXT is from Myer's work. If you compare the SS limo's starting point (relevant to where I placed it in the previous composite) at 2:09.16 and run it for 7 seconds to 2:16.16, this is where it ends. Use the lane markers as a comparison/measuring tool (red arrows) between the SS frame and Towner's last frame According to Myer's, Towner filmed at 23.3/24 FPS for 160 + (8 missing frames) frames which is 7 seconds. The Towner frame in this composite is the last frame (#160). Towner's camera does not have a setting for 24 FPS. It does have a slow motion setting for 48 FPS. I own this camera model. It films at 16 to 18 FPS in multiple tests I have run using "Normal" mode 16 FPS x 10 seconds = 160 frames 18 FPS x 8.88 seconds = 160 frames Question 3 Where is the missing time? chris

Jack, I'll have to reserve comment on Z's line of sight to the Towner's for now. I'm geared more towards a timing issue. This next composite positions the limo from the SS recreation to where it appears in Towner's first frame(see 1st posting). Notice the timer at the bottom which shows 2:09 This is actually 2:09.16 into the SS recreation. chris

Jack, The red arrows point to the extended streak in 3 frames. Is this any easier to see? chris

Question 2 Would this composite be a good representation of Tina Towner's position as she filmed the limo turning onto Elm St? The red lines that extend from Tina represent her "Field of View", which would match her first frame provided in the previous post. chris

Does anyone see the extended/dual streak in this stabilization? chris

Question 1. These 2 frames are taken from slightly different positions. Using the sidewalk sign post (LOS with the crosswalk) and the County Records Building window as registration targets, can one conclude (from Tina Towner's frame) the limo started it's turn toward Elm St. about where the crosswalk begins? chris

Robin, Not to confuse the issue further but!!! Where does this photographer fit in? Who is he? Do we have his photos? thanks chris

Here you go, Robin. He climbs down from the wall. He's at the corner after frame 133. chris

Robin, That is not Betzner. The gentleman from frame 130 climbs down from the wall and heads to the street corner. I will post a stabilized version of his (pre-limo) actions a little later. chris

How long does it take for brain debris to disappear from the DC film? The Z film? chris

What they didn't show. If it wasn't mentioned previously. chris

Duke, This stabilization isn't much clearer, but it will give you a brief look at the movie. The truck at right is stopped. Yes, I did alter/doctor this one. I added the sepia tone background to it. chris

Duke, The film is from Groden's version. Anyone can play the non-stabilized version for comparison's. I set it at 18 FPS and changed the aspect ratio for a more pleasing view. If you arrow through the stabilized version frame by frame, and notice the car movement in the background, in each frame, the car's move in equal distance in relation to the previous frame. No I did not doctor the Bell film. I made the movement of cars and the background a little easier on the eyes. Use movie inspector within Quicktime to give you some of this technical information. chris

Remember, Tom Purvis has pointed this out to us many times before: http://history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/...Vol17_0449a.htm Which is 31 feet farther down Elm than the 313 head shot. Perhaps the couple is reacting to this shot along with Mrs. Franzen. Would appear to coincide with the documentation. chris

Correct me i I am wrong, but didn't Dolva and a couple of others on this very forum successfully get all the assassination films to run in sync with each other and if so, can you explain why yours does not??? And one more point ... the Nix camera shutter is opening and closing out of sync with Zapruder's. To best see this is to look at the head shot frame in both. The debris is further away from JFK's head in Zapruder's film than in the Nix film. Bill Miller Did they extend it past the head shot? Do both films show Clint raising his leg off the ground for the final time? Do both films show the same man spreading his legs apart? I see no missing frames. chris

Jack, This should lend more support to what you have provided. The Nix film shows Clint lifting his leg off the ground for the final time.(Animation) Clint still has his leg on the ground at frame 369 in Z. If you compare the two movies provided, and pay attention to the last 2 people(closest to the limo) that are filmed, the gentleman spreads his legs apart at a specific moment in time. Z frame 378+379 This occurs in both stabilized films, but they do not sync if you take into account when Clint's leg leaves the ground in both films. chris
