    Here’s an initial batch of shots from both Saturday and Sunday at the World’s Greatest Warbird airshow. More to follow, as still wading through a 1000 plus shots.

    Septic.

    More Questions..!

    Thanks Paul,

    When taking photo’s with your D-SLR, do you let the camera do the focusing and use your hand to zoom in and out?

    I’m now looking at the Sony A200k as is much cheaper than the Canon and Nikon but also came out on top in a latest test in DIGITAL PHOTO magazine for entry level D-SLR. I also found out that Sigma do the 70-300 APO lens in this fit. What does APO stand for??

    Thanks again,

    Phil.

    Now for a telephoto lens…..

    Thanks guys,

    Now that is out the way, I’m going to need a decent zoom lens going up to between two and three hundred. Like I said, I’m on a budget and don’t want to be spending more than £200 on the lens. What would be a good buy in this price range for action shots (Sigma 70-300 APO looks good??). Also if anyone has shots taken with a budget lens on an entry level D-SLR please post them for me to have a look at what quality I’m to expect. No photoshop enhancements please haha.

    Thanks in advance.

    Phil.
