I've had another play with the 80-400 when the sun came out for a brief few moments today! I think I've done a bit better this time around although there are a couple of shots here where it's all gone a bit wrong in the corners not sure why or what I've done wrong.

Any pointers, tips, advice all are most welcome.

One.


Two.


Three. (Not sure why the corners have gone this way)


Four. (Same with one not sure what I'm doing wrong)


Five.


Six. (I know I know it's that damn bird bath again!!!!!)


Seven.

Agree - I think their a little out of focus, are you using AI or the same focus you use for stationary objects? You want the focus to be constantly adjusting for the target with something like an air craft, also make sure all your focus points are active, as there shouldnt be anything else up there it should make it easier to get a lock on.

Also what aperture you using, because Im sure that where the mid section is on the plane is in focus the nose and tail are not in a few cases - could be your using too small and aperature and therefore your DoF is too small to get the whole thing in focus.

Four looks ok to me though, just a shame you clipped the 3 wing surfaces off the frame
