This is video of a dude zooming in on a star. My question is what's causing this weird visual? Shitty lens?

The camera lens or telescope is out of focus. The star should be a bright dot when in focus.

It's called "being out of focus". Gibbering retards like to pretend this is something significant.

Seen these tards on youtube with shit cameras doing this. I thought it was some kind of digital processing artifact. They think the stars are decorations on the fish bowl.

The star is out of focus, the waves/ripples are atmospheric disturbances.

No, he's changing the focus. When a point light source is out of focus it will take the same shape as the aperture. The waves are turbulence in the air.

this

the image you are seeing is not the star's shape in it's true spherical form but actually optical aberrations from the defocus
