Cameras can record nuclear explosions without getting fried. Lots of examples: The Centralnuclear / YouTube

Those cameras are shielded. Either way you would see a huge flash of light at the beginning of the explosion. You can look up plenty of examples of non nuclear explosions with those type of small mushroom shaped clouds

How do you know all those videos were recorded with a shield, as you call it.... And why do you assume the video recorded in Ukraine was not shielded? How do you think someone would be prepared to record videos of the Ukraine explosion if they didn't already know it was coming? And from multiple view points?

You can tell there's no filter on the camera because the image before the explosion is exposed normally and there's no giant flash of light at the start of the explosion which shows it isn't nuclear. Considering plenty of non nuclear explosions can form this type of cloud and considering that it was an exploding weapons depot that would most likely create a huge conventional explosion, why would you think it was nuclear?

I do not know if the explosion was nuclear or not.

I have recorded videos of the sun with a normal camcorder.... and NASA says the emitted light is a result of a nuclear reaction.
