Nice work in the gallery, too!

Nice series of shots, and nicely titled too. ;)


The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it. :cool:

You're a multi-talented photographer, number 4 is my fav.

I'll be seeing the BAs fly tomorrow. These shots are inspiring.

Got a question for ya, if you don't mind...

How well did your 5D3 AF with those fast moving jets? From your shots it looks like it did a good job. I currently use a 1D4 but need another body. I'm considering a used/refurbished 1D4 or a new 5D3 for air shows. Any opinion? Thanks.

AF worked great for me. I use center point focus in AI Servo mode when shooting jets. I never shot a 1D MK IV before so i can't give you any kind of comparison as to what you are used to seeing. Keep in mind the 5D3 is full frame so you will lose some of your normal zoom compared to having a crop factor camera.
