For the pilot Timphoto wrote in post #6026341 Nice pictures Robert. Were you using your 28-125 lens in the helicopter? Tim Thanks Tim. Yes, I was using the 28-135mm (I am assuming you had a typo) the kit lens with my 40D. During that flight, I was really needing something with a wider aperture. I was reluctant to bump up the ISO so I could minimize the noise in the shots. Some suffered with vibration/motion blur as a result. Robert | Gear |

Timphoto Creme de la Curmudgeon More info | Robert, yes you assumed correctly, I did mean the 28-135. I'm going up in a traffic helicopter for a 2 hour ride next week and I was debating which lens to take, the EFS 10-22 or my 24-105. Hopefully they will let me take both lenses.

Of course the pilot determined that cause he was balancing out the weight in the helicopter.
But, nice captures
