alt Hacker NewsThe event horizon for even the smallest black hole is in the scale of kilometers. If the user is a meter away from the black hole light isn't going to move away from the center of it to your camera.

This is recent conjecture?
I grew up with micro black holes being a possibility, with conjectures such as primordial black hole evaporating down to Planck dimension stability, etc.
Now I think I see what you meant. There actually are no upper/lower limits on the black hole size (in classical physics – ignoring quantum effects). Compressing the Earth to ~1 cm in size would give you a black hole, and its event horizon size would be ~1 cm, not kilometers. And even black holes this small are stable, according to our physics knowledge.
