Apollo 18 (2011)

Corrected entry: The Westinghouse TV camera outside the LEM has a motion sensor that zooms into moving objects paranormal-activity style. Let's not forget that this is 1974, and cameras - especially cameras designed to work in a vacuum environment on the moon - were not equipped with motion sensors at all.

Correction: That must come as a considerable surprise to the designers at Westinghouse, who made the cameras which filmed the ascent of the lunar module at the end of the Apollo 12, 14 and 15 missions. They all had motion sensors.
