Genuine question: does the FOV of the shot indicate that Yavin IV would be visible from the Death Star? An observer watching from a third point in space (like the camera here) might be able to look on either side of the Yavin gas giant to see both objects, but they might not be able able to see each other nonetheless.
This is probably correct, especially considering how objects in space (especially in Star Wars) can be hard to judge w/r/t/ distance.
Looking at the tweet that .gif came from, apparently someone made the case in the responses, too

Eh. I don’t know. For me the most questionable thing in the shot is how the gas giant behind the X-Wings looks like it’s made of play-doh.
