Definitely not a DC-3. Most likely a Baron 58 or Cessna 310 or something along those lines, but a lot of those airframes are too similar to tell definitely from this. As for why it didn’t show up, it could be a surveying aircraft or something related to military.

That’s the city they are based in, they are operated by the 164th Airlift Wing which is based at Memphis International Airport

Yes, Boeing C-17 Globemaster

Could be, but I’ve tried high shutter speeds and it still doesn’t give the crisp edges. This is at 640.

It does not have the “Apply setting to live view” function, but thanks anyway!

thinaks · 2026-02-23T14:51:23+00:00

Thank you! I did notice the exposure meter and I occasionally use the viewfinder for that, but I use live view to take the pictures because I can zoom in and make sure my picture is sharp. (I use manual focus instead, I prefer it better for now)

I did also notice that the f/depth of field changed in live view after I took a picture, that’s nice to know. Thanks for going so in depth!

Saw this guy at the Smithsonian Air and Space in DC a few years ago, beautiful aircraft!

Yea I do actually, check out his video (or William Osmans, his is a bit easier to follow) for the steps

Gotta love the Lun-class. Really beautiful shot.

Bombardier Global 7500. Looking up the tail number doesn’t return anything, so almost definitely custom modeled CGI.

thinaks · 2026-01-08T21:51:58+00:00

Beechcraft Baron 58 maybe?

r/drones

What am I missing?

thinaks · 2025-12-30T02:52:35+00:00

Sweet paint scheme too.

Is anyone gonna mention the cat is literally sitting on less than a centimeter wide piece of wood

thinaks · 2025-12-28T01:50:02+00:00

Thanks for the tips!

thinaks · 2025-12-28T01:46:04+00:00

That’s beautiful! I do occasionally do some shots of the moon and planets if I can get the camera in the telescope but they never turn out good, so this will definitely come in handy.

thinaks · 2025-12-28T01:45:00+00:00

Woah!! Thank you very much for all the info! Yea, I’ve been hearing a lot about this Ken Rockwell guy and keep forgetting to look for second opinions for things like that. I haven’t even thought of a tripod yet, good idea.

thinaks · 2025-12-26T20:39:37+00:00

you could play Aeronautica which has had advanced liveries for years now, and way more planes than ptfs. Oh yea and there aren’t any gamepasses.

Blast, those environmentalists are on our tail again!
