Pooks - Love that S92 shot! Can I suggest you knock the shutter speed back a bit though to get the rotors in motion effect. I see you've even managed to stop the tail rotor in the shots so you must be shooting in the thousandths of a second range. Try dropping the shutter speed right back to 1/125th or 1/250th if you have to. Any faster than 125 and the main rotor blades will usually look pretty stationary. Just a suggestion!

I was looking for more details on the Dauphin at Eurocopter, and found this gem from the CHC website

Thanks Capt H, those shots were all in Auto mode hence the fast shutter speed. Was toying with the idea of taking the tripod down sometime and knocking the shutter speed down a bit.

What's the horizontal scale under the FLI? Is it a mast bending moment gauge?
