What a tracer should look like (before spazzing just look).

looks like the MKI eyeball fps thing won't be explained... must be something selective being applied there - oh well

oh, oh.. that's right - sparklers aren't rounds tracers, they're sparklers

yesss, you've said it yourself - "when the camera is moving" you're seeing the same camera quirk that has tracers zig-zagging in guncam footage

I didn't think it needed explanation as it is quite obvious, except for you, that I did not say that the the eye has no shutter, camera functions were just used as an analogy.
If I had meant that the eye had a shutter I would have said "the eye has a shutter".
But talk all you want the eye still has the limitations as I've said before.

So, what's your point here? Are you saying that there's a difference between different light sources when it comes the the discussed effect?
