We need to see more of the sim in motion before we could get useful info by comparing it to peoples memories. No amount of pictures will work, like you said, a fast moving object like a tracer round will always look different on a still picture to what the human eye sees.
I understand..But as I stated, even a still camera in real life doesn't mean that it is acceptable as a reference to realism, or to replicate what a human eye perceives.....Especially with fast bright moving objects....To be more precise :

" and if a still camera in real life and a still camera in the sim produce almost identical images, then by extension the sim in motion should (hopefully) look like what the camera in real life would see."

That is why Oleg doesn't rely on photographs to establish is "real colors"...Too many unknown parameters...

Salute !
