Hi Lex,
Have actually seen and read about this one. The photog is the head of the
carrier's photo recon unit. He was using a N*k*n N90 with a 80 - 300 zoom
at 300. Full manual focus, exposure etc as he said " the camera couldn't
keep up". He had been trying for this shot for some time. Oh, just to be
technoid he shot 1/100th at 5.6 and says he hit the shutter as the a/c boomed.
