A question for the photogrphy experts
I have been going through the pictures that I took at the Duxford airshow,
and am struck by how many of the airborne shots came out fuzzy. It looks as though I have a focus problem. I am using centre weighted continuous focus which means that it is possible to take a picture even when the autofocus has not achieved proper focus. The advantage is that there is no delay between pressing the shutter release and making the exposure. I have noticed that when I use burst mode, a fast moving aircraft does not stay in the same relative position in the frame in each exposure. Could it be that the autofocus temporarily focuses on a patch of sky rather than on the aircraft? I know the camera and 70-300VR lens that I use are capable of taking sharp pictures, so the problem must be in my technique. Do I need to practice panning more? I would appreciate having the experts weigh in on the subject. Thanks in advance, Indrek Aavisto -- Criticism is easy; achievement is difficult. W.S. Churchill |
