Re: VE80 Flypast from Flatford

Thanks!

Down by the river at Flatford. Parked up in the NT car park and went into the field just over the bridge there. After a very short walk the view to the west opens up at a bend in the river. https://maps.app.goo.gl/hxiCgc7JvNqwQnMx7

VE80 Flypast from Flatford

The cloud cover hadn't quite cleared away by the time the flypast came through, but here we are nonetheless. 1 https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54501880787_53e2bfe94d_h.jpg 20250505_122805_2R7A1107-Enhanced-NR_edit_marked by andrewnottphotography , on Flickr 2 https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...

Look out for AAC068 on it's way back North now, just passing Colchester. Overflew Heathrow and Northolt on the way around London.

Re: AH-64E

ADSB says ZJ220 on 43C271, but take that with the usual pinch of salt. C/S AAC062.

Video Length Limit on Canon DSLRs

Hi all, does anyone have experience of recording lengthy video on canon DSLRs (70D specifically).

What happens when the 29min, 59s limit is reached? Can I immediately press start again for another 30 mins, assuming I have the capacity and the camera hasn't overheated (is this likely?)

Thanks!
