Hi Guys,
Well, I throughly enjoyed my day at Fairford airshow and the links below show a few of the photos I took. Surprisingly, the exposure was not too much of an issue, I too over 700 photos and only 15-20 had real exposure issues, however, focus did get me which I would appreiate some feedback on.
I suspect that "camera shake" is the main cause, + the fact the the planes are damm quick ...
Photos 1,2,4 are reasonably in focus, but 3 is "not sharp" despite the plane traveling at fairly low speed. Is it normal for a beginner to have such issues, if you look at the pics full size you will see what I mean.
All shot with the Nikor 55-200 Lens, AF-C, Large/Fine image.
Many thanks for your help and comments.
