Default Photos from Parowan, Utah - U.S. Sport Class Nationals

Hi,

My camera is a Nikon D700. I love it. It is great for fast shots and gives
great results.

For the ultra-wide angle shots I use a Nikkor AF Fisheye 16 mm lens. Most
of the other shots are done with a Nikkor 24 to 70 zoom. For capturing
gliders in flight I use a Nikkor 80 to 200 zoom. My next purchase will be a
Nikon 2x converter for use with the long lens. It won't be quite as sharp
as a real 400 mm lens would be, but it will be nice to have 160 to 400 mm
capability when I want it.

It was nice flying in the contest in a DG-1000 two-seat glider. That made
it possible to let the other person fly while I took some photos.

What camera/lens did you take the wide angle cockpit shot with?
