Most excellent sir 🙂

As for the zoom, I have only got up to 4 x digital zoom, nothing else… is this a problem, and if so, would you know how to rectify it…?

If you are planning on taking photographs of aircraft a lot then you really do need somthing with a good high OPTICAL zoom factor I’m affraid. The digital zoom factor, especially when used at its maximum settings, is not the best feature they ever put on digital camera’s.

The camera basically inerpolates what it ‘thinks’ should be there and the results are only ever satisfactory at best. (Software enlargeing using somthing like Photshop, is much better as it has the full power of your PC to do the work!).

Probably not the news you wanted to hear, but have play with the settings as I mentioned and get closer to those aircraft 😉

I’ll give it a whirl on Thursday as I’m flying in via VLM from Liverpool in the morning.

last time it cost me £35 in a taxi to get to Islington from the airport 😮

I sat on row 13 on a VLM fokker 50 into London City a month ago. The plane was full except for this entire row, the stewardess asked if i wanted a window seat (as i was in a aisle seat on row 12). For some reson they where raise dup about another 10 inches from all the other rows too.

With you Wozza, check the sun angle shadows of the blue pole and the lampost at the bottom of the picture and compare with the silhouette of the plane on the ground :confused:

Exactl what I was going to say, there is no distortion to the shadow of the 330 which would occur unless the sun was directly overhead, which it isn’t from the shadows of the lamposts. Looks like the shadow has been made from a mask of the A330 in photoshop!

I’d like to be disproved though, as it looks great!
