Thanks Guys.

Toby,

I use a Nikon D200 DSLR, with a Nikkor 70-200mm F2.8 VR lens along with a Nikkor 1.4x teleconverter. I dial in +0.7 EV to compensate for dark aircraft against bright skies. Photos are processed from '.NEF' RAW files using Nikon View NX2 and Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 software.
I have been using 1/320th of a second in shutter priority for prop driven aircraft, but since adding +0.7 EV compensation, I've found I can get good results at 1/200th of a second and occasionally slower than that.

Regards

Kevin
