If you wanted to do the right thing and show it better in context so that estimates of size and location can better be estimated, you would indeed want to pull back fully to show it in relation to the tree line. It doesn't necessarily indicate a flaw.
I think I'd want to know what footage was on to begin with. Why they were outside the apartment with a camcorder, for example. Were they already out there, or did they come down after seeing the UFO from the building, or was it something else?
It reminds me a bit too much of those radio-controlled floating styrofoam UFOs you can get at the mall.
I'd love to know the context of this sighting ... if indeed it's an actual sighting and not staged by the person filming. An audio track would be nice, although it certainly wouldn't prove anything.
I've played with the rotor-style foam saucers. I'm not aware of anything you can buy in a store that could rocket off like the object in the video.
Of course, this could be a digital hoax and we might not be dealing with an "object" at all.
considering the implied heigh and size of the object, the perimeter would have to have been rotating at a huge speed--maybe as much as 100 m per second; and there seems to be a large, rapid angular wobble, which would be very unpleasant to be in. and the sudden acceleration should have been deadly to anything, seasick, clinging to the interior. certainly no craft as we know it.
i'd say that it's been digitally inserted in very prosaic footage. the pullback of the camera, as mac observes, is a dead giveaway.
things like this are only going to be easier to hoax, and the hoaxes are going to improve, until only multiple sourced and sustained news camera footage will be able to 'prove' anything.
