[PIC_THREAD] Sports, Action, Transportation

I haven't been in here for a while (not feeling it with photography at the moment :( h). Nice page, some lovely images recently. Nice work all :)

Anyone going to RIAT this weekend? I was expecting to have to work this weekend instead so cancelled my 100-400 rental, but now I can go. Only have a 70-200 though now!
 
Not the best I have done but they were taken using a phone camera so considering that I'm impressed with them.

It wasn't fun getting stuck in traffic, ending up on the far left of the crowd line and only having a 70-200 with a 1.4x... :D

...and an extender:D.
That's some lens though, your Flickr shots show the sharpness even with the 1.4x, is it the Mk. III?
Beautifully exposed they are as well.
 
Yeah a cheap Kenko 1.4x TC, too tired last night, I did put that in the Flickr set description! Some are noisy as I underexposed. The weather was cloudy for the majority of the day and haze was a problem. Originally I was going to hire a lens, but I was expecting to have to work this weekend and it was only cancelled at the last minute.
 
Nice sets from Yeovilton and Shuttleworth footman, I really must make an effort to get to those next year!
 
I don't venture into the photography section very often but thought I'd come post a variety of bits from the last year of getting out & about. The BTCC stuff was the first time I'd ever shot any motorsports, lots of trail & much error! Holy huge image dump Batman.

Some local air festival stuff, yet more trial & error. Great fun but a lot of learning still to do.

Cheers, that Kenko 1.4x is a real cracker, it's always on my 300 2.8 for wildlife although it's too close for airshows mostly.

I don't think you'd get sharper shots using the Canon MkIII 1.4x which is the TC they all rave about on MkII lenses.
