I'll repost this comment I made further down because I don't want it to get buried and want you see it and read it.

Part of your duty as "journalists" and purveyors of information is to sit back and look at the entity of a situation and its circumstances and ask yourselves "Are we being played?" or "are we being used by someone else for their cause?" If you believe that is the case, pursue that as well and let the world know the circumstances of how and why you have the information. You and the information do not exist in a vacuum. If you received information or documents from a source that is aiming to use it to damage a particular person or side you bear part of the responsibility for the outcome it caused. It would not have mattered if you published information from a source in the current american administration intending to damage the Republicans in order to keep their party in power, or if the current suspicions are true about a foreign actor giving you the information with the intent of causing political change in their favor. You have been used as a tool.

Some of those people in the video look like old and modern pictures taken with the wet plate collodion process. The plates were sensitive to blue and ultraviolet light and a lot show freckles.

I also want to find a used dslr body and want to create an ir dedicated camera by removing the filter glass and replace it with an ir pass filter. Any tips on doing a conversion like that on a budget?

If you don't sneak in references to the lyrics of Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb lyrics in your papers you're missing a perfect opportunity.
