Catching something extraordinary on camera has never been proof. In the past, people could claim dark room effects. In the present, people can claim photoshop. It is silly to ask that such things be caught on camera when real images would be indistinguishable from fake images. You need to see such things firsthand like that psychiatrist claims to have and if you do, almost no one in this age will believe you. It would something like this, except without any fun before the last pane:
