I figured better late than never! Enjoyed using the K5iiS on its first airshow outing, with the DA55-300 and also with the 18-135, which provided some different perspectives. These are a few of my favourites - C&C welcome as always! More on flickr if you're interested

Thanks for looking!

Some brilliant shots there Andrew. Nice to see the Viggen making a return to UK airshows...haven't seen one for years...always used to be the loudest of all the fighters on take off.

Thank you, Karlo. Yes, the Viggen was extremely loud, and gave a good display...loudly!

The one that stands out for me is the copter shot in #7 - A great picture. Such a shame about the irritating and distracting watermark that spoils it.

These are good shots of the aircraft, Andrew, and #7 is the greatest. Two C&C points, both of which could be just a matter of personal preference: 1. The letterbox format doesn't seem right for shots like these, particularly #1 and #10 - for me, the very nature of the subject requires more space around it. 2. For a clear sunny day, are the shots a bit underexposed? - they could be brightened gently to reveal more detail.
