[With samples] What's the best lens aperture for shooting out of a plane window?
I am considering to upgrade to SLR with shooting out of a plane window as the main reason. So I would like to have recommendations on the best lenses for such purposes.
I found a great deal for a D7200 with AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-105mm F3.5-5.6G ED VR. Do you think it's appropriate? (you have then an idea about my budget)
Thank you !
My goal is to have way better shots for scenes like this:
Shorter focal lengths tend to show that stuff, so your 100mm+ should be good. Much shorter and it could start showing specs of dirt etc. With that, as mentioned, longer focal lengths will also require a higher shutter speed. I am thinking at 100mm, 1/320 WITH an internal stabilizer could be enough, but it would certainly be wise to be above that if you want no chance of shake.
