Hi all,


I was wondering if anyone had some good tips for shooting airshows (the flying type, not the stationary type!) given how fast everything moves.


I took these photos at the RedBull AirRace in November last year (these are unprocessed other than to convert to JPEG):








I do wish I was able to have shot the second one with a longer lens, but I didn't have one on me at the time.


Both images were taken with EOS400D and 300mm f/4L IS. The first image was 1/500s @ f/5.6 and the second was 1/1000 @ f/8
