I talked with Timmy, and the calc seems to make a lot more sense. The 0.08s timeframe was used for the Peak Human. That would make sense because the man in the helicopter is a trained pilot, and is dozens, possibly hundreds kilometers away, saw it in an instant. Same for the shipmen who were very far away as well.
 
Peak human reactions are reserved for jet fighter pilots and it's not like the guy wasn't able to see the light trails.

I see no reason to use 0.08 seconds in the first place.

Timmy also used one of the two giant holes to measure the distance, but those are quite far away from the fight itself.

0.08 seconds doesn't make sense for a time frame
The fastest possible conscious human reactions are around 0.15 s, but most are around 0.2 s. Unconscious, or reflex, actions are much faster, around 0.08 s because the signal doesn't have to go via the brain. Reflex actions occur in response to danger, for example moving your hand away from something hot or blinking when something moves quickly towards your eyes.
0.08 doesn't really apply here. If you want the camera thing the best you got is this
Television. When you produce video for television, it's best to stick between 24 and 30fps. This ensures that your videos look realistic and fit what people expect from broadcast television. Live broadcasts, such as news and sports, are almost always shot at 30fps, whereas TV shows and movies are usually shot at 24fps.
But even then the narration boxes did not mention anything about camera. Just that all parties besides those directly present thought it was esper stuff. So using a camera FPS seems iffy as well.
 
Its probably going to be more like 45% SoL to be more accurate. The camera thing isn't backed by the narration, its just something somewhere here said.
 
At any kind of vast speed, cameras won't be able to see what's actually happening, just a blur.

So I don't get this logic. It's not like they're moving before they're captured in even one frame of a 24 fps camera (although they most definitely are moving fast enough).
Timmy debunks
The problem is that it's a huge ass formation. What looks 'right next to it' by comparison is easily a few kilometres.

I mean, in a futuristic world with advanced and more powerful technology, the fight that had a range of hundreds of miles was never detected and was considered a "phenomenon".

If a camera could see fight blurs I doubt it would be considered something simply supernatural from nature
 
Suiryu was watching it on TV.
But the narration box wasn't about the cameras. But people drawing an incorrect conclusion based on what was happening. None of them have the eyesight to pick up tiny human sized figures moving thousands of kilometers away.

Because everything is really far away. The helicopter that got the image was still hundreds of kilometers away and everything nearby was leveled. Look at this picture. Now imagine in the very distant background the feat happened. The camera cannot pick up objects that small in detail from such a distance away.
 
You wouldn't even see blurs on a camera if something is moving at half the speed of light, especially not if it's actively recording an event at a great distance.

The narration was clearly coming from the live recording from the TV.
 
The narration is from an omniscient third person narrator, not something that happened in-universe. The people there couldn't see the three, but that was because they're incredibly far away as well.
This is literally what it said: "We've just now received a live footage from Z-City! What on Earth is that? A mysterious large glowing object is drilling into the Earth... Ah! It's... It's disappearing! The mysterious wall that has been covering Z-City... is starting to vanish!"

Does this sound like an "omniscient third person narration" that happening in the universe?
 
Unless I missed something we're talking about this page which doesn't feature that dialogue.
I was originally talking about that page. In that page, there is a page that shows Suiko and Suiryu watching the TV. We already know that what they were watching was recorded by a live camera. In that same page in the recent chapter, it says that all parties reported the same thing. If we are going based off of reactions, the camera FPS can be used.
 
I get what you're going for then. Though at that I still don't think it ends up meaning much, since its not like you could pick up three people with a camera from that distance away in the first place.
