It is hard, but Everyday Astronaut had a manually-operated camera with a 2,000mm lens that captured everything from engine start all the way through a reasonably-clear view of SRB separation.
In 4k, at 720fps.
(I didn't bother with watching the NASA feed.)
I wish we'd known this before the launch
Both myself and my 12yo were disappointed by the NASA feed, it was more like the matter-of-fact coverage of 'routine' Shuttle launches of the 1980s than something worthy of this historic mission.
Yeah I watched the official feed because SpaceX's official feeds are always the best thing to watch for their launches and I guessed the same would be true for NASA. Especially since this whole program is essentially a PR exercise. Oh well.
Well, now you know. :)
Always watch Everyday Astronaut's live feeds for rocket launches. It's the primary gig for some of those involved, so they care a lot about making it something that is both informative and superb.
