Re: Meeting de l'Air Nancy-Ochey 30 june/ 1 july 2018

Just a short question about your experiences regarding airshows at Nancy in the past: Is there any chance to find a spot in the village of Ochey or will this area be entirely closed by the authorities? Regarding the runway direction I am not too happy with the sun situation and consider to find ano...

They are all in RAW format (luckily). I will look into how to upload one somewhere.

Overexposed sky...best way to deal with it?

I have been shooting a lot of images at an airshow, but that day the weather was not great. The sky was a light/dark gray all day. This meant that I had to overexpose to get the aircraft exposed properly. This causes the skies to be very bright to the point of annoying. I mainly use LR and I have so...

Re: Tactical Weapon Meet Spottersday 2017

My take on a more than excellent spottersday. Can't think I have ever been to a better one.

Re: EHLW 27-03-2017 MIL

Ik kijk er nu voor het eerst naar en ik zie ze wel, althans enkele kisten: De beide tankers hebben hun pattern verlaten en vliegen in oostelijke richting over de Waddeneilanden. Verder 3 Belgische F-16's, zo te zien op de terugweg naar Lwd. Ik zie ook tankers en af en toe een flight met een paar to...

Re: EHLW 27-03-2017 MIL

Een domme vraag misschien, maar ik zit thuis te kijken op ADS-B Exchange, maar zie maar heel weinig eigenlijk. Ik heb als filter militair aan staan. Worden er transponders ofzo uitgezet tijdens de oefeningen boven de Noordzee?

Bedankt voor jullie mening Ik ga het denk ik eerst proberen met een 2e hands Mk.III om te kijken hoe het bevalt.

Re: Canon EOS 5D mk4 overpriced?

Sorry dat ik mij hier inmeng, maar ik zit al een paar jaar te kijken naar full frame. Ik doe naast vliegtuigfotografie ook indoor sport en heb het idee dat ik een full frame daar heeeeel goed kan gebruiken. Ik ben echter voor vliegtuigfotografie bang voor het verlies van de cropfactor en dus de fict...

Re: Sanicole 10, 11 Sept 2016

The Polish AF participants have left KB for home so don't expect to see them tomorrow. I was chatting with some bloke on Sunday and he told me the Polish guys got into trouble with the police when they were on a night out. Polish consulate sent them back he told me. Don't know if there's any truth ...

Re: Canon 1.4x extender mk III

I'm using this extender with the 7dmk2 and a 300mm F2.8 IS mk1. It's a lovely combo these two, but I don't really notice any differences with the 1.4x II to be honest. So, when looking at the money side, I would choose the 1.4x II if I were you, it costs less and I don't think you will see a differe...

Re: Nov2015: "Britain's MoD says NO to Boeing P-8 ASW MPA B7

It can't be a coincidence that the P-1's were present at the Air Tattoo. The Japaneese knew there was a possibility. I wouldn't be surprised to see the P-1's as the best candidates now.
