[QUOTE="Woodyg3, post: 625292, member: 24569"] Yep, that shot shows motion blur. If you are panning with the plane and using relatively slow shutter speeds to get nice prop blur, you will probably want to turn OS off. On my Nikon 70-300 I use VR "active" and that seems to work when panning. I don't know if Sigma has a similar setting. Aviation photography is tough, and the longer the lens, the more any motion blur is magnified. I always shoot in continuous high mode and pan as smoothly as my shaky old hands will let me. That way I usually get a few that are pretty sharp and still have nice prop blur. I will also admit that I chicken out and use higher shutter speeds at times, a sharp shot is sometimes more important to me than having artistic prop blur. :) [/QUOTE]
