Slow Shutterspeed At Sunderland Airshow

[68lbs]

Well, here's the first three from me, and since I only had 200mm on full frame I thought I'd start off with something a decent size so at least it filled maybe a third of the frame! All quite heavily cropped and shot at 200mm, 1/60th shutterspeed to try and get some decent rotor blur.

Open to crit from you lovely people as usual. And I'm thick skinned, so don't worry about being too brutal!

they are sharper than mine at 280mm on a cropped 40D
nice job
any post processing?
I loved that helicoptor , that it can sit on it's nose and rotate around, amazing flying!

Thanks. Number #2 is my fave too.

Out of focus, or blurred due to movement/shutterspeed? I've got plenty where my panning was crap, and the shutterspeed was too slow.

any post processing?

Nothing special, other than quite a hefty crop. Mind you, I'm having to do 100% crops on most of the planes just to get an 800px image.

Sorry to hear that. I found the Chinook one of the easier ones, as like I say, at least it appeared a bit larger in the viewfinder.
