Not really posted on here much, but I do have this forum to thank for the results I got at the weekend.

This is the first time i've taken photos of Prop Aircraft and Helicoptors, and referring to the guide on here I was determined to get a decent prop blur.

Well done !

Last one to me has the most impact because of the POV, but all good.


I'm mainly here for the snacks

You've nailed it. Nicely done.

Good to see that your lens is now sorted, and you've got some cracking shots with it Keith, nice one :)

Thanks for the feedback.

As EOS_Fan says, I used my 100-400mm lens for these. I'd had it for a while and never been happy with the results I was getting on full zoom.
After trying it on a different body it proved it had a fault, so went off for repair. After replacing the USM and the IS it's now spot on.
These were my first shots with it (picked it up Friday, shot these Sunday)

Great job. I like the third one. You capture a sense of speed while still getting a crisp image. It's cool that the pilot turned toward the camera.
