thanks for the comments Stu
I was at MAN again last week, but the weather wasn’t very good
(typical MAN weather 😀 )
completly confused myself with the setting and screwed the lot up :mad::(

Whatever lights your fire I guess,
If it flies and has an engine then I am intrested :p:)
Thanks for the advice Paul,
I am now starting to feel more comfortable with the camera and the different settings, but need to spend some time learning the processing side :confused::mad:
the Software I am using is OLYMPUS Master 2.11W
cheers
Chris
The last batch of shots are good but a few appear oversharpened, hence the jagginess in areas.
I had noticed that after I uploaded them here. On my PC they are saved as 1024×512 pixels, when I uploaded them through photobucket they were resized to 800 x 600
Second set of shots with the new Camera
The weather was good on Sunday (26/04/09), so I took a quick trip down the M56 to MAN to have another play with the new camera.
rather than start another thread I will post some shots here
again help and / or advice would be welcome ;):)

In the Ryanair shot with the Lads sitting on the fence…are there any other barriers between that fence and the taxiway???
here’s the view in Google Earth

Thanks for the comments :):)
What settings did you use for these?
Mike (Using same set-up)
I started on full auto, then switched to “P program AE” and played around with the setting to get the best depth of field, also tried the sport mode and landscape mode.
I have a 4GB card in the camera so I was able to take lots of shots of flybe Dash-8 on different settings so I could compare the differences.
as for editing, all I have done is level the horizon ( I have a natural 1 degree lean to the left :rolleyes: ) cropped and adjusted the contrast a little
Nice catch on the new EZ 320
there where two new EZ 320’s, a new 737-8 for Thompson with new titles and a few new A321’s for Monarch ( ex Easyjet )
Feel free to drop me a PM if I can help in any way
I may take you up on that offer as I am struggling with the white balance settings :confused:
I’m off to EGGP tomorrow to have another play with it (if the weather is OK)
Dungeon Lane
Hi Zeb
I was also down Dungeon Lane on Sunday ( The one with the big dog ) 😀
Hawarden
Tuesdays and Thursdays always seem to be the busiest
and you never know when a Shadow R1 puts in an appearance

better than sitting at EGCC watching flybe dash 8’s coming and going all day 😀
Here’s a couple of photo’s that I took on 22nd Oct 08

Apologies if this is old news but… having a look at the UK serials site this morning i noticed that the Army Air Corps new King Air surveillance aircraft have a name at last…
Shadow R1…
Shadow, Sentry, Sentinel… somebody at the MoD obviously wants all our surveillance aircraft to have names that start with “S”….
Anyway… a little more digging found some pictures of them at Hawarden….
Kudos to Chris Hall for getting these shots.. i suspect these will be quite elusive birds in the future…!
Zeb
glad you like my photo’s
G-OTCS was seen at Hawarden again on 21st Jan 09
