Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

I use a € 600,00 Panasonic Lumix FZ50 consumer camera, so nothing special, it is not even an SLR. But I'm pretty pleased with the results myself, especially for that money. Picture quality goes downhill very quickly in bad weather though. But then again, bad weather is not a condition in which to expect a lot from any camera... :wink:

I haven't a clue about much of the settings, since I manually set shutterpriority between 1/320th for prop aircraft, and 1/500th or higher for faster moving fighters. The rest is automatically done by the camera.

Regards,

Stephan

They did fly, but landed when a big cloud was blocking the sun (this is where the quality produced by my camera makes a steep dive :wink: ):

By the way, the Italian Tornado's had the last two digits of the serial painted on the nose wheel doors (these were more clearly visible than the MM's on the scorched tailsection....):
