G'day gents (and ladies if there are any);
I'm coming from Downunder and will spend 2 weeks in NYE over xmas and NYE with my girlfriend. I intend to spend some time plane spotting but unsure on the kind of lenses suitable for plane spotting at JFK.
Currently I'm using a Nikon D300 with 70-200 VR for my plane spotting. The 70-200 is sharp but I am afraid that it might not enough reach for those amazing banking shots of heavies out of JFK....
what is a good lens for plane spotting at JFK? I've been looking at the AF-S 300 f/4D which is supposed to be amazingly sharp even wide open.
Also: What are the days/times best for plane spotting? I understand that daylight hours are significantly shorter in winter-but I do hope to see the EK A380 and perhaps CX 777-300ER.
Any advice is much appreciated.
