I didn’t say it was used by Zahi to calculate the distance
It was clearly implied. Otherwise, why would you claim a contradiction based on Zahi’s numbers for size and distance?
I simply am trying to see other simple ways to validate his results.
You need to learn some science. Did you complete high school physics? Start there.
But I did tell Zahi and Lock a simple way to add more credibility and soundness to their conclusions, and it is by using their same techniques on Langdon’s photos and prove that it is a small object.
This statement proves just how little you understand science.
I don’t know.
PRECISELY. The reason Meier’s WCUFO photos, particularly his courtyard series are significant to UFO research is due to the fact that it was taken in a location with VERIFIABLE REFERENCE POINTS on either side of the UFO. For anyone who understands science and a little photography, this concept is a no-brainer.
However, determining UFO size was not as simple as plugging a few numbers into an equation. It involved two primary methods: Computer modeling and a scale model. Even if Langdon provided better photos it would take more than, “a few minutes of time”.
p.s.: And by the way, is there and equation for the camera-object-distance for a nearby object?
If there is, I doubt it’s a simple one.
And where is this M = D/d = H/h = f/(f-D) used?

You are right, it comes out as 48 m and not 42 mm. I didn’t say it was used by Zahi to calculate the distance, I simply am trying to see other simple ways to validate his results. I did try few times to work through this report, but I couldn’t do it, with all those equations and the rest.
But I did tell Zahi and Lock a simple way to add more credibility and soundness to their conclusions, and it is by using their same techniques on Langdon’s photos and prove that it is a small object. But for some reason they declined to do it. Is it because their equations proved that the object in Langdon’s photo came up to be a large object as well? I don’t know. It would only take them a few minutes of time but for some reason has evaded to do it for years. May be you can do it since you seem to have read and understood the entire Zahi’s report. Are you interested?
