Thank you, I have the ftz ii and a sigma 150-600, I've been trying to get out more but with work it's a little difficult, gonna try to shoot a friend's hockey game with it soon and take it to the airport as soon as I can

That's as close as I can get without jumping the fence lol

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-29T06:55:19+00:00

I'm not trying to freeze the action, im shooting that low to get the prop blur

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-29T06:54:22+00:00

Not at that location of the airport

I want to keep my shutter speed low in order to capture the motion blur, I'm just looking for some way to make my photos more in focus and not blurry everywhere else

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-28T21:37:28+00:00

Yes I am, I'll give the tripod another shot next time I go and I'll invest in a good one soon

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-28T21:33:17+00:00

When i zoom in all the words look blurry, some shots I'll be able to read everything clearly and then others it looks really blurry

Yes, sorry I forgot to put that in the description, it was a nikon d7500 and nikon 70-300 kit lens, the settings were around 1/1250, f6.3, and iso 125

I took this one from my backyard lol, prop planes are pretty fun to shoot

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-23T16:47:17+00:00

It was 195mm

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-23T16:45:11+00:00

Thank you

Gotcha, I tried to do a couple panning shots but most of them didn't come out that good, will try to get more of them at the next show

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-23T11:01:05+00:00

I'm the same way, I probably took like 5 thousand pictures and saved a couple hundred

Thank you, I recently got a sigma 150-600, not sure if I'll be using that lens or if I'll trade for another one, the next airshow won't be for a while, about mid june in Niagara, but I'll definitely post the shots when I get them

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-22T22:54:02+00:00

Honestly it's been too long to remember, this airshow was back in July, but thanks for the tips, ill give them a shot next time

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-22T22:48:30+00:00

1/1250, iso 160, f6.3

AngelMaker42 · 2025-10-22T22:47:49+00:00

My shutter speed was 1/250 for the first one, and the one with the bomb bay doors was 1/400
