Cleared for landing

A sequence from the Hi Tec Oils Off Road Enduro near Waikerie in South Australia on June 12, 2009

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are on our final approach.
Landing Gear is locked.
Ensure loose items are stowed safely.
Cabin crew, arm doors and cross check for landing.
It could be a heavy one"

Great captures, the last one is great

Great sequence. What camera? Just curious as to the frame rate it takes to pull that off.

Nah, you just want to steal my secrets - haha

They were shot with a 1D MKII and 70-200/2.8L (non IS).
I deleted three frames, the first (missed focus), fifth (slight camera shake), and seventh (camera shake) and didn't put in the two after landing.
Shutter speed was 1/250 sec at f18. ISO was 250 and focal length was 130mm

That 1D MKII and 70-200/2.8L is a great sports rig. I now shoot about the same but with my 1D MIII. I miss my 1D MIIN:(
