Nice photo's despite the dark weather, don't forget to copyright your photo work…….. and what kind off lens do you have ???
cheers +Olav de With the weather was pretty ordinary, however the high humidity did help with some nice condensation forming on the wings in g turns.
The lens I used was a nikkor 300mm f/4 with a 1.4 teleconverter. I have the 1.7 TC, but the 1.4 and 300 seem to give reasonable distance to capture some of the manoevres
+Gerard Blacklock Thank you for the explanation ! Nice Nikon gear you have that 300mm f4 is well know for its sharpness good combo with that TC 1.4. I have a 70-200VR 2.8 and a TC 2.0 III & D300
+Olav de With that is also a very nice combo and on the D300 it would certainly have plenty of reach.
The 300mm f4 is a very nice lens especially considering its quite low cost.
Nikon gear is good but also a bit more expansive in comparison to Canon……… Nikon should come with some new lenses such as a new version from the 70-300 VR or even more interesting for aviation photographers a 80-400 with AFS&VR
The 300 mm f4 (AFS) is well know for it's sharpens!! and indeed a" friendly " price ……
yeah a new version of the 80-400 is sorely needed, i would love to have a 200-400 f4 VRII, but at 6k its outta my range 🙂
+Gerard Blacklock Hmmmmmm the 200-400 also for me to expansive but quality coast you $$$$$$. Although the "NEW" Sigma 120-300 2.8 with OS is in general a very good lens…….for a more consumer friendly price.
