Making panorama photographs can bring its own unique problems and one of these concerns the 'Nodal Point'.
The camera's point of rotation must be under this position if all the images are to line up accurately, especially if some of the subject is near the camera.
Without this, when the different images are stitched together, all the subject matter will not line up. As you rotate the camera, a distant and a near object will move in relation to each other.

The stills from the 16mm video:
Firstly, it isn't Apollo 11.
The video in question is from Apollo 8's 16mm footage, which you can see at 36:56 here:
So whatever it claims to be showing, it isn't Apollo 11.
The crater in question is Marconi (which Apollo 11 didn't fly over on its orbital path), and it is shown as a mirror image - often the camera was mounted in the frame and viewed a mirror looking outside.
I'm not sure what is being claimed as an impact, but if it is the much brighter crater near the middle of Marconi this can be seen in Lunar Orbiter images pre-dating Apollo.

The footage varies in speed because the camera had variable settings, and it had no audio capability. Some people have matched audio to the footage, which is why it can be found apparently with sound in some youtube uploads.

Not one single photo or video offers one single iota of 'proof' that any aspect of the missions were faked

This one does.
This is someone pretending to be an astronaut reflected in the visor. They didn't even bother to add the life preserving bulky backpack.
As this person was the purported photographer of this image, why is he/she not even facing towards the visor?
This 'new' image of AS17-141-21608 offers no more detail than has previously been available.
