10 shots from an air show! (XT3+70-300 & 18-135)
19

During the weekend I spent two days on an air show in Athens and had the chance to grab some nice shots with the Fuji gear:

There was both static display and acrobatics

Mirage 2000 is one of the main Greek fighters

Tried to play a lot with relative slow shutter speeds in order to have the propellers looking nice

Acrobatics are the most impressive show

There were two acrobatics teams, one from Royal Jordanian and...

... one from Poland

Both groups were equally impressive!

One of their most impressive tricks was two aircraft mirroring each other and flying extremely close to each other!

Details from the XF70-300 were great and can say I didn't miss a longer lens FL.

In general Fuji gear performed nice. XT3, 18-135 and especially 70-300 could focus on most of the flying aircraft no matter the speed. May post some more later as I have almost 100 pictures just from one day.
