Ask about flight shots a while ago on here and had loads of vauled advice found the best results i have obtain have been when the bird has been fairly close and the light has been good ,as you would expect the missing piece of the jigsaw for me was the bird needed to be flying slow ,a bird returning with fish is not going to hang about but 1 looking for food will be moving slower <tern> and 1 picking up nesting mud will take off slowly< Swallow > the tern was on auto and the swallow was on the rapid fire mode that is reduced to 3meg

Thanks for sharing these. I've a FZ38 and flight shots is something I've always struggled with this bit of kit. You've given me some hope now!
