I thought for sure the camera was toast when it went all purple, it looks like the lense was essentially gone and we are just seeing the raw output of the CCD but then the flap moved and there was a few frames where you could actually see the flap and the damage but it's still actuating!
Amazing engineering.
There is essentially no better data that this regarding what the error tolerance is on the flaps. Should help create lots if reliability in future versions
