RE: Photographing RC planes.
I ended up with a 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS lens for the 50D yesterday and decided to take the new Pulse XT 60 for its maiden flight. I ended up not flying being I am still sorta new and the wind was 15-20, so my buddy flew while I shot photos. It was a weird day for lighting. Extreemly overcast and yet, kind of bright. I ended up setting my ISO to 1600 and here is an EXIF file.

Exif comment :
I was more interested in pushing the cameras limits rather than worry about perfect shots, and it showed. The 50D is a little different than the 30D and after getting home I realized I should of stepped down another click or two. But, WTH, it was the first day with the new rig.
