A little bit time ago, on the old forum, we have had a lengthy discussion trying to identify an aircraft visible on a guncam still. Despite armchair conditions, good knowledge of silhouettes, and plenty of time available, it was never 100% identified, guesses being Fw 190, Ju 87, Me 109 or Ta 152.
Also, quite recently I have seen some guncam films, and sometimes I needed a replay to assure as to the type visible.
In the heat of combat you would not have that chance.
