Re: Lake District - Tuesday 22nd Jan 2013

Number 5 has to be one of the best snowy tonkas I've seen dude, the angle and glint of golden light. Very sympathetically edited as well. Top draw :thumb:

Re: Sigma 1.4x converter. Any users?? Opinions??

I've got the Nikon fit 1.4 and 2.0 The 1.4 is very good indeed, no noticable speed difference in focus and still pretty sharp on my 300 f2.8 Sigma. The 2x can take a while to focus and is noticably less sharp - as one would expect really.
Hope this helps
Ed.

Re: Shooting into the sun.

Spot metering can help, just make sure you keep it on the aircraft, easier said than done sometimes! AS Pete said dial in some exposure compensation, at least +1 should help.
