I thought it was about time I made the effort to capture an Iridium flare on video. A quick trip to the Heavens Above website revealed that Iridium 49 would be well placed as it flared to mag. - 6 in the west so I grabbed a tripod and 50mm lens to make a post 11pm trip to the local fields where I had a decent horizon for the event. I managed to include Procyon in the field which gives a useful comparison at mag.0.38. (Best @ full screen HD 1080)
