Too many buttons that are not intuitive.

Maybe it's because I've had 2 canon cameras (40D and 5DII) and thats just what I'm used too.

Thanks for your kind words :-)

Can't wait to see her again, it's made a lasting impression that's for sure.

Check this photo out.... Love it

http://finningleygallery.smugmug.com/XH558/Dunsfold/19583979_gc8LS3#1534043810_77Td6Qv-A-LB

....Wow !! That is a great shot  :congrats: :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:

It just needs cropping on the right so that the Vulcan is dead centre - It'll make the pic much stronger. The yellow pylons help the atmosphere.

Very cool, I live in Wellesbourne where the other vulcan lives, this one regularly flies by which is awesome to see and hear, we often run out of the house to see it :)

Have a look here, includes one of XH558 as an MRR2, plus a Vulcan scramble..... :notworthy:
