Sandy, I have a question... in your aura post you show an image with 3 anomalies:
Did all 3 show up in a single shot, or is this an overlay of 3 separate anomalies?

All three are in that single shot and are on a trail.
In this picture I am circling the Middle Aura (notice all three auras are in the shade the only sunny spot is up and left, this was taken in the late afternoon)
Now this next picture is of the same location (circled in Black) as the middle aura in the last picture (This Picture was taken Midday in full sunlight)
The Bright spot is not a lit up aura it is a Boulder they made into a Sun Sign and the middle aura I caught is at this Sun Sign's Exact Location. The Yellow Line is a treasure Location Line meant to be spotted from Miles away (Basically a trench in the side of the mountain) and in the yellow circle is a very large 15 foot Boulder Owl placed next to the Trench Line indicating there are treasures buried all around this area.

There is no way to know what cameras can catch an aura even google earth however at that distance the aura would need to be very large to see, I am catching my auras at a half mile I use the trees for pinpointing so using Google earth could be quite a challenge for pinpointing an aura even using GPS Coordinates. If GE did catch an aura you would need to go to the aura site and verify the aura as a treasure aura with actual boulders that are carved into treasure markers.

Looks like you have a lot of information there.
I will say that not all F's are carved in the traditional sense. Some are fashioned from out crops and appear as stacked rocks. Monuments are also disguised this way. Be on the trail and look carefully. The correct angle is everything.

Was this a case where you took a long series of photos and the 3 anomalies only showed up on one photo?

Yes I started around 2PM or 3PM and took a thousand shots this was late in the day as it takes almost 3 hours to get the thousand shots at 10 seconds in between shots, so the shadows were coming in and I caught the auras at the end of my shooting around 5PM or 6PM and yes these only showed up on one of the shots.
Are there any up to date cameras that will capture these auras?

I do not know of any considering how hard it is to find a Real camera (not a phone camera app) with a intervalometer.

Best bet might be older cameras actually...and you can buy more of them on Ebay
I use Canon because they're customizable once you know how to crack them open. If you love to tinker then explore this page: https://chdk.fandom.com/wiki/CHDK I don't remember if sandy1 points to this website, but definitely give it a thorough browsing. It seems like the older Canon's provide more flexibility when it comes to the CHDK (Canon Hack Development Kit) stuff.

I suspect I know the physical cause of these anomalies. Here are some additional questions:
- In a long sequence of photos, if you get an anomaly in a given photo do you ever see a repeat in the same location in another give photo?
- If (1) has happened, have you tried rotating the camera a bit to see if the anomaly then shows up at the same physical location but in a different place in the image?
- Once you get a photo with an anomaly, have you tried moving closer to see if the anomaly gets (photographically) larger? Or do the anomalies seem to stay about the same size regardless of distance?
- Are they easier to obtain in bright sunlight, low sunlight, overcast, dusk, twilight, etc?
- Have you ever buried a test cache and experimented with it?

I have never had a repeat Picture of an aura in the same location having taken hundreds of thousands of pictures from the same tripod location shooting at the same area of the original captured auras (they are quite rare when they are real treasure auras) The auras are very fast in the hundredths of a second and don't Flash often, so expecting to catch another one in a thousand shots every 10 seconds is a lot to ask for.
I tried closer but have never caught an aura closer than a quarter of a mile from the previously caught aura areas even though I knew there were caches in the area, a quarter of a mile seems to be the closest you can really catch an aura but a half mile is better. Sunny or in the shade doesn't really seem to matter I have caught auras both ways, however (I have Never caught an aura after the sun went down)
Not every aura is a treasure I make sure to verify with the markers at the location of the aura to confirm if the aura is actually coming from a treasure.

The first aura and second aura I have ever seen were caught with a canon film camera, it belonged to my parents and my dad caught the first one back in 1998 and my mom caught hers in 2000 with the same camera at two locations about 30 miles from each other, both spots they were looking for a treasure from a story. At the spot my mom caught her aura a few years later I dug up a storage vault plugged in with corked in boulders and at my dads aura area I found the carved in stone doorway with the lightning bolt next to it.

Can anybody post short videos not just pictures here? I bumped into a upside down what looks like a heart but its being held by outher rocks in the air and was wondering if anybody has seeing something like this in the past or if anyone knows what it means.

They are found in the field just as you have found one. Most people dont want to potentially expose their finds or pictures here due to sentinel activity. But, you could always post yours so others could give opinions. Many things can be used in many ways. Some can have numbers, images, directional pointers, rear sights etc. And may be using other boulders at a distance to make a line.
Especially if they have the typical Spanish "shark fin" incorporated into them.
Her is my short video, the heart is well placed in the center. If any one knows what Its trying to tell you please comment.
