We do not want to be accused of bias of any kind, in our recommendation for aviation photography, hence
we show comparable gear from several brands in the same price range. For great images apart from having
the right equipment, (some work better than others) one needs to have a sense of visualization of what
they want the end result to look like. To be a good photographer one must concentrate on what they are
doing, know how to use their equipment, and have a steady hand (a tripod or monopod works too depend‐
ing on the situation).
is one of the latest full frame cameras offered by Nikon.
24.3MP full‐frame CMOS sensor combined with the EXPEED 4
image processor offering a continuous shooting up to 6.5fps,
that is a faster frame rate than any non‐professional full‐
frame Nikon DSLR since the D700. A first for the Nikon full‐
frame to feature a tilting LCD screen; a 3.2” 1,229k dot LCD.
Its 91k‐pixel RGB metering sensor works in conjunction with
an improved version of the 51 point AF system found in the
D810 and D4s. Perfect for accurately tracking moving sub‐
jects, such as aircraft. Built‐in Wi‐Fi is a much‐welcomed fea‐
ture in the D750. It is also a powerful tool for videography
with capture rates at up to 60fps, in 1080p, and features zebra stripes and auto ISO in manual mode. This
camera is real winner, even if one considers the limited buffer space it offers. While it is not exactly inexpen‐
sive at $2549.95 Cdn or $2299.95 US, (body only) it is close to $1000 less than the 36MP D810!
Mark III is the latest and much improved version of the full
frame EOS 5D series offered by Canon.
22.3 MP CMOS full‐frame sensor, 6 fps, 1080p video at 24,
25 or 30 fps and 720p at 60 or 50 fps. It has 63‐zone me‐
tering sensor, dual slots for CF and SD cards. The new sen‐
sor, coupled with Canon's latest DIGIC 5+ processor, offers
a standard ISO range of 100 ‐ 25,600 that's expandable to
50 ‐ 102,800. The shutter is rated to 150,000 cycles and has
been refined for quieter operation. Viewfinder coverage is
a full 100%, and the 1040k dot, 3:2 aspect ratio 3.2" LCD
screen has improved anti‐reflection properties. 61‐point focus system from the 1DX ‐ the professional Canon
body. The list price is $3499.99 Cdn or $3099.00 US from your Canon dealers nearest you.
