Nice pics…that CO 777 is certainly bright

Superb Tom – good choice of equipment. Does anyone know why the TAP A310 is all-white with tiny ‘TAP’ markings?

😮 Nice shots tom. I didnt see you up there.( I was trying my new cam out too. After 1 shot it ran out of battery lol:D ). Looks like you had a more interesting time than me. What time were you there?
Lol. I was there from around 10am til 1.30pm. Don’t think I saw you though.
Thanks you two.:)

Where abouts did you take them from?
They’re all from the Inner Perimeter Road at the eastern end of the field – when 26L is in use nearly everyone goes along there.
What lense are you using?
I only went for the basic (and cheapest :)) one that they had in the shop which will do for me at the moment until i can upgrade it. It’s a Tamron AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 LD.
Why the change from the Nikon system just out of interest?
Well, my dad sort of instigated the whole thing because he wanted an SLR camera so he suggested that he bought my D50 off me and I could go and buy a new one. It would have been either the D80 or the 400D and the 400D was the winner because it was cheaper and I’ve heard that the 400D is a good camera, which certainly seems true.
Cheers everyone!

Excellent work Tom! I’ve been using the 400D now for several months and it seems like a pretty good machine. What lense are you using?

Great shots Tom, from one of my fav airports in the UK 😀
I’m gonna take a stab in the dark and say that the Cityjet missed the curfew at LCY?

Hope you enjoy using 400D , I know, myself it’s a pleasure to use , only down size , if you are using RAW is the Image file size can manage about 100 images per 1GB card 😡
