Even if nowadays we are "tolerated" it's always safer to have a "low Profile" staying in spot2 parking away (spot 2 you can reach only on foot) and stay "outside" visible only when neede...

I do not understand dutch but I supposed you are looking for a zoom < 100mm. I think another nice lens should be tamron 28-75. My was very sharp and 2.8 is a plus. this fit your budget very very well too (about 320/350 Euros for a new one). pay attention some copy have some AF issue at 28mm wide ope...

With a 1,6 crop factor you need 300mm to the 05 approach but you do not have the mountain in the background always. It depends on the pilot :wink: .

Ghedi is good only in the afternoon (sun on your back) so in winter time you have not much time to take pictures. The spot squadmin indicated is correct but h...

nice pics!
