Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | F-22 Raptor

Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | F-22 Raptor  The F-22 Raptor is a single seat, twin-engine, all-weather, stealth, top line fighter.   For more soft sepia aircraft images, see Soft Sepia Aircraft | a 7 Image Story.  For more information and images of fighter jets, see Fighter Jets | a 7 Image Story.

The Back Story  This image was captured at Oshkosh while laying on my stomach.  The 70-300mm zoom lens makes it easy to adjust focal length as the Raptor taxis down the taxiway.  Remember, 125mm with the 2.7 crop factor of the Nikon 1 V3 converts to 337mm.  To learn more about using the Nikon 1 V3 for aviation images, see Nikon 1 V3 for Aviation | a 7 Image Story.  Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
