I wonder why my camera produce a lot of noise even at ISO100... <_>Do you shoot in RAW or JPEG? Shooting in RAW will allow you to better control the noise. Anyway to all the Malaysian Wingers at LGK, well done! Superb coverage of this year's event. Hope I will be able to make it in 2013! Next stop, Singapore Air Show 2012?

Waiping 12 Report post Posted December 12, 2011 Just to share some photos of the US Navy P-3C Orion and the RAAF A330 tanker. I only know CDR should be Commander, but what about CMDCM. They also have names on the nose gear cover. Not your typical knight in shining armor. Camera for the refueling boon operation. The refueling boon. Unfortunately the A330 was not open to public on that day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norman 1 Report post Posted December 12, 2011 wahh uncle norman!!Amazing photos there!all very much 'wallpaper materials' Thanks Iwan.... yours are amazing too... Nice sets Uncle Norman...very clean pictures...no noise at all... I wonder why my camera produce a lot of noise even at ISO100... <_> Your 7D should be as good as my D7000.... probably you're shooting at metered settings, ie, the camera metering would be checking the whole frame, meaning, metered to the sky this, your main subject become dark. When you want to brighten it, noise appears. Depending on aircraft, I add in +0.3EV to +0.7EV to brighten up the subjects as well as D7000's superb D-Lighting algorithm... uncle norman, what gun you use to shoot the birds? 300mm? 500mm? My normal 80-200, and heavy crops on some of them. But the SuperHornet are friendlier, he flew closer to ground... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kinda liked the Eurofighter & Rafale performances too since they were ALOT closer to the ground compared to out Cik-Su who seems to 'disappear' at times..

Waiping 12 Report post Posted December 12, 2011 btw,managed to catch these two going home while waiting for my flight back on Sunday morning!And it seems Krisakti has some leftover smokes maybe? Eh, Iwan I thought you would stay overnight at LGK? I was waiting for my D E L A Y E D AK5329 back to KUL. Saw a few CN235 waiting for passengers at the airport. Seems like they were using them extensively for ferrying guests to and fro LIMA.

Not used to +ve exposure compensation as usually mine would be too bright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, stayed from Wednesday to Sunday.Had enough of the LGK sun already. Initially regretted taking the early flight out on Sunday due to the lack of rest but after seeing the MiGs and Krisakti,it wasnt so bad. Good thing was, i got a nice plane back Nice catch of the Kris Sakti with the MIG29N Iwan. I managed to catch the RMAF MB339 and F18 when catching my flight back to Singapore on Sunday morning.

As I was queuing under the hot sun I was also thinking about the same thing - should I or shouldn't I. I think they stopped accepting visitors after the aerial display started at about 3pm.

flee 5 Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Wait a minute, why did they paint FFC & FFD in old colours? Shouldn't it be in the new colours? What the hell are they thinking up there in management! It is probably an interim paintjob - MH has previously stated that FY will be operating the B738s for the new premium airline. I think this is a "holding station" move pending further decisions.

You were there on Saturday morning Victor?.... sorry didn't see you. Friday morning I shot from near the lake directly opposite Mahsuri Hall and Saturday, on the hill near the DCA quarters, next to LANGKAWI sign opposite the terminal.
