Nice shots!

What size lens were you using?

I’m just starting out with my Nikon D40, so I’m no expert, but I use the following –

S Mode
Between 1/160 and 1/400 shutter speed
Exposure compensation at +2/3 or +1 if the sky is light and the aircraft dark and -2/3 or -1 if the sky is dark and the aircraft light
55mm to 200mm DX lens
Manual focus usually, or sometimes AF-C with dynamic focussing

A far as I see it, we should be using M mode. P I think is basically the same as putting it on auto. I am using S at least until I begin to understand aperture a bit more, then I will swap to M

I’m sure some of the better photographers here will have some better ideas!

Me109 – Don’t judge all cat owners the same. My two are both kept in-doors, it’s far safer for them!

Of course, I had to be honest, already discounted Farnborough on account of the cost, and the fact I went to Legends last week

Should probably have mentioned that in the first post.

I’d forgotten about this one…

I can’t work out whether its rubbish or not.

Penny for your thoughts

True Keith, although it’s going back to the shop in the morning – not impressed by it for airshow photography (although a fantastic compact)

May swing by my Dad’s in the morning and swipe his D50 – then I can startle you!

I’m torn between the two now.

Whilst I saw Liberty Belle at DX on Saturday, the opportunity to get a bit more ‘personal’ with her, would be nice. I loved Legends, but seeing those planes in a quieter, less busy environment would probably have made it a bit more poigniant.
