I have been hired to photograph a friends helicopter in the air from an airplane to put up on his website for a new business. I live in Alaska so the idea is to have beautiful landscapes behind the aircraft. We will be photographing over the Kenai River and Skilak Lake on the Kenai Peninsula. I have a Nikon D300 with these lenses ... 70-200mm f2.8, VR, 300mm f4, 85mm f1.4, 24-120mm 3.5-5.6 VR, 12-24mm f4.
My question, what do I use? Or should I borrow something else? My first instinct would be to use my trusty 70-200mm VR. If that was the right choice, would I set the VR to active, as if I was in a car??
My backup camera is a D200. Another thought would be to put another lens on it and take it as well. Maybe a longer or wider one?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!!!!
