Wattisham AHDT Rehearsal 29/04/15
Posted: Thu Apr 30, 2015 9:01 pm
Evening guys,
I was over Wattisham last night helping my dad put up a fence. Thought i'd chuck the camera/scanner in the car "just in case" there was much going on. Tuned in to wattisham at around 16:30pm whilst digging in the fence posts and heard something about a display slot delayed till 17:20....
.........needless to say, that darn fence went up in no time!
A mad rush around to the Memorial crash gate saw me pull up just in time as the two ship display were lifing off. Due to a bit of panic to get there in time and fumbling around swapping lenses in car like a plonker I forgot to switch the camera to AI servo mode
and found myself cursing the camera during the first half of the display
I then realised why it wasn't focusing right and switched it to servo and got some okay'ish shots....
