LeeCH 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2008 Ramzyn, That's the way man. Go go with Wimberly Head. Sure will not regret. Spotting with it is best! Added your CF 6X series Gitzo tripod already? Otherwise your setup jatuh....then heart pain. Better wallet pain first. Your trinity is 14-24, 24-70 and 70-200 or based on the 17-35, 28-70 and 70-200?

Mohd Faridz Mohd Yunus 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2008 Yeah Pieter,according to the RedBull Air Race website,this pilots pulls up to 10G during the race,and they dont even wear G suit!!!...anyway,here is some more shots of the practice sessions... Mike Goulian(USA) ...knifes thru the airgates... ...and buzzes in front of the Red Bull camera heli.. Nigel Lamb(UK)... Hannes Arch The only problem taking shots of Red Bull air race is,there is so much smoke from the aircrafts that the background becomes grey instead!!! :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
