Aircraft Photography
Static Aircraft
On a static Aircraft photography day . My basic gear would be.
Canon 6d set to Av eleven sencors on.
Canon L series 25-105mm.
Canon 50mm f1.8 prime.
In flight
For the aircraft in flight I would use.
Canon 6d Av for the jet aircraft and Tv for the prop aircraft at 1/60th
Canon L series 100-400mm with stability on for the tv setting lol.
If not using a lense like I used my Sigma 135-400mm I used my monopod Because this lense has no stability.
But one trick I lernt of a rule of thumb so to speak never use a shutter speed slower than the MM of the lense you are using and pic will come out fine lol.
The monopod will become your best friend nearing the end of the day because It will hold your huge lense and your neck dosnt have to with the strap lol , I did a eleven hour day and wished I had my monopod lol.
