Thanksgiving Feast of Savings Rebates from Tamron

Tamron is offering some really inc...me of its lenses until December 31, 2015! Currently there is a $200 rebate on the incredible Tamron SP 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD lens! Here are a list of the lenses and rebates they have on them currently and ending on 12/31/15:

Tamron 16-300mm Di-II VC PZD lens $80

Tamron 18-270mm Di-II VC PZD lens $50

Some of these are the most aggressive rebates I have ever seen on the Tamron lenses! Give Mark a call at Camera Land and get yours ordered today. Get all of your camera gear needs as well. Make sure you let Mark know you are a member of the Campfire for the best pricing! Whether it be around the table eating turkey or under a tree, opening a box with a new lens and gear can always be great!

The images below were made at a recent Air Show with the Tamron SP 70-200mm Di VC USD lens or the Tamron SP 150-600mm Di VC USD lens.

Great photography is not about being in the right place at the right time, it is about putting yourself in the right place at the right time.

David, what was your shutter speed to catch the prop blur in the Corsair shot? Nice rebate on the 24-70.

Doug, with most of the planes, 1/60th would give you good blur, but with the Corsair I had to go down to about 1/15th of a second at times. Most of the guys around me who do this stuff all the time said usually between 1/30th to 1/60th. It was a lot like shooting birds in flight really. The jets were as fast a speed as you could get, usually over 1/1000th of a second.

Thanks. I have not been to an airshow since the Confederate Air Force in Harlingen, TX in the early 80's. Hopefully again. Jay Beckman's aviation photography is nice and I see a lot of his images on my facebook feed.

This was my first since about 1990! Those guys who do it often are really good. The keeper/delete ratio is scary but I was pleased.

Exif on the F4u says 1/100. Either way, nice shots. You must be a pretty good wing shot to go that slow and get sharp shots. wink

ChrisF, that is correct it is 1/100th. It isn't a full prop rotation though. In order for the full rotation, it would require about 1/30th or slower. That shot would be a "throw away" if I wanted to submit it for some publication of aviation photography. Fortunately, I don't do anything in that industry! I should have phrased my response above to say "in order to get a full rotation, I had to go to". Thanks.
