Dear Mr. [redacted]

Reference is made to the UFO report which you submitted to the Air Force.

The film you submitted was viewed several times by photo analysts and photo processing personnel. They were unable to define any objects or images which resembled those described in your report.

The film consisted mainly of backyard family sequences. After the family sequences, the film consisted of close-up scenes with sun shining through the hair of an individual standing in front of the camera. Power and telephone lines are visible at two separate times in these sequences. These…

objects will be in focus. If the lens is stopped down to F:16 the hyper-focal distance drops to 1.56 meters. Anything beyond this distance is in focus. Therefore, the image causing the object is probably within 14 meters of the camera.

Sincerely,

NASTON M. JACKS
