TIL President Hayes was a sixteen year old who went on rpolitics too much <| sep |> A couple of points about this image if it helps 1 Visually it matches earlier confirmed images . Eg Michael Moore from June 10 . This looks like a DSLR to me , and if I wasn ' t digging I ' d assume it was the same one . There are ways of doing forensics on the actual sensor every sensor has a unique noise pattern but that ' s beyond me at this stage . 2 Both images have the same stripped exif data . This appears to be a twitter policy , so nothing useful there . 3 If you check the white points in both images , they have matching saturation of 2 . Hue etc varies between 40 and 80 , but the minimum saturation doesn ' t appear to go below 2 I ' m at work so someone could verify this in photoshop for me ? 4 Previous DSLR style photographs are 1200 px wide . This one appears to be 1024 px wide . Not comprehensive , but if we ' re to play one of these things is not like the other this seems like a good place to start . I believe Assanges DSLR camera can be seen on June 18 . This is the one he ' s using to film himself , so camera forensics should be able to match they photograph . Still doesn ' t tell us much if it matches , but might tell us something if it doesn ' t . Godspeed ! Edit uleebrenton might have some more insights here
