We’ll we’ve had some brilliant shots from those I’d consider to be the experts and I’m sure we all appreciate them and aspire to those standards. A week late but here’s a few of mine taken with a 200 quid Fuji with an interminable delay, so catching something in the air was akin to a miracle. Hope you enjoy them.

If your camera is an 2800Zoom, then you can improve focussing time by holding the shutter button in halfway and waiting for it to focus – then chasing the aircraft round the sky like a demented nutter. When you have the shot you want complete the depression.
ie
It won’t change once it’s been set so you have to wait while the object goes in and out of focus – so this camera isn’t very good for fast moving objects.
Perhaps we should have a compo for 2800’s – who can get the best fast moving shot?

During the main display on Sunday at Legends, there was a brief 30 second moment when nine Spitfires on the flight line were devoid of all other aircraft, pilots, crew, refueling trucks, ‘dangly’ legs the lot.
My mind said – “New opening screen for the PC” – click.
