Faced with that dilemma, ALWAYS cut the engines off. You will last a lot longer than you would without the tailplane. [quote:3496ace15f="Pwynnej"]It was either cut off the engines or cut more off the tail.

so it was an A340 then
I think you misunderstood me thinking you were haqving a go?Cloudhunter wrote:
Your making out the crop factor was responsible for making it a bad pic?? No, i purposely cut off the other 2 engines as if i had kept them it would have made the pic look like a panorama. Which i didnt want.

And that 1.5x factor meant that the tip of the tail fin of that A330 at Manchester Ringway was cut off...
I guess it was an A330 on the basis that the crop factor has also meant I can't tell if there are 2 extra engines (as in the A340) or wing tip fences (the absence of which would make the plane an A300 or A310)
As I say it's been a long time since I've been to an air show so at least I'll hopefully get a chance to check what the best shutter speeds are
No my lack of experience in taking photos is what cut the tip of the tail fin off. It was using an 18-200mm zoom so could have easily zoomed out slightly. If i was on a full frame body i wouldnt have had the choice of zooming in as much though would I?And that 1.5x factor meant that the tip of the tail fin of that A330 at Manchester Ringway was cut off...
