Fantastic. What f stop did you use to catch the propellers like that? I
sure love to see the circles and not stopped props, Tom in Pensacola


If you download the file and right click onto it and select properties you
will see the Exif data - this first file says f11.
But its not the f stop but the speed that is important to show the props. I
have a 'Herc' custom setting on the camera that sets the speed to 1/160th of
a second. That appears to be about right for me - any slower and the whole
aircraft goes fuzzy as you fight the weight of the lens.
