I've asked my OH and he thinks it might be because your camera was on average metering for the whole frame (so it would be metering mainly to the sky) - you could try spot metering when photographing birds in flight to bring out their colours more. :thumbsup: Only problem with this is that the sky might look a bit 'burnt out' but worth a try and that could be adjusted in photoshop. :cheers:

Hi Keith, I asked a friend about the pic and got this response ....

-his exposure was wrong, he needs to look at the relationship between f numbers and shutter speed

-the bigger the f number for example the smaller the apperture and the greater the depth of field

- if i were to be taking a shot like that i would reduce the depth of field and go for something like f4 or less, depending on the lens

- and increase the shutter speed

- if its a bright day he should be on asa100 too

-hope that makes sense

Any use? My friend also said if you are into photography and wanted her e mail address I could let you have it and she might be able to help you.

Hi Keith.Was out trying to get a few pix of the small plane's that have been going over our place yesterday,but as i was messing about with manual,at the request of the tutor we have in the camera course,i had the same result's as youreself mate.Everything else was spot on,but the subject was dark,and colourless.Then after i thought there were no more to come over,and had went back to sport's,another passed at the same hight,and i got a perfect pic,even down to the small righting on the wing's.Unfortunately i deleted it.But on the way back,i did get a quick chance at this one,which was coming in well below radar.Just got the one though.
