Plane Spotting at LAX - Trip Report - Nikon P1000

[@SaskPlaneSpotter]

Thanks, excellent video! I live in Saskatchewan, Canada and a few days ago saw a Kalitta Air fly over from Sioux Falls to Anchorage.👍

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks for the feedback! I'm always on the lookout for the Kalitta Ait 747s. They've been flying north of my area lately, but I'll post a video of the next one that I see!

Every plane spotters dream

[@OneLensTwo]

I Agree, it's a great camera for plane spotting!

[@SomebodySomeone-xh9kv]

@@OneLensTwo I'm going to get one for my birthday soon, very excited! It sure is a legendary camera for plane spotting. But the bad thing is that I don't live in LA anymore, and I'm too young to travel

[@OneLensTwo]

That's great that you're going to get a P1000! I also enjoy zooming in on planes at cruising altitude which you can do from almost anywhere.

[@atrax7023]

Yeah i had the privilege of flying on a 747 and even with bad turbulence over the Bering sea it was a very smooth ride!! Awesome video!!

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks! Flying on a 747 is on my bucket list. I kind of don't care where it goes - I'd be happy just be on the aircraft!

outstanding & you are correct outstanding vid as well :

[@ohareplanespotting]

[@OneLensTwo]

Thank you! Your planespotting is awesome too!

[@jacplanespotting314]

Loved the video AND your commentary!

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks - it's great to hear that a fellow plane spotter enjoyed this video!

[@jacplanespotting314]

And you showed me the power of the P1000, including contrail sightings….

[@tmilichoo622]

Very good content!

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

[@VAltoFH]

Wow, amazing shot... Nikon P1000 will be my next camera.. :D

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks Voando Alto! The P1000 lets you frame a great shot of airplanes or anything else no matter how far away it is!

[@DFW_Spotter]

This is giving me a lot of airline videos live vibes 😂

[@OneLensTwo]

I agree, Plane Dude! I think that was before Airline Videos Live started the behind the scenes view, so it was fun to see their setup when I was there that day.

[@PLANEMANIA747]

Excellent capturing😍 747❤

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks, Plane Mania! Agreed, 747s are the best!

[@jpv3577]

superbe !

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks, I really appreciate the feedback!

[@jadeblack7979]

second that :

[@ShahirUsmani]

Good explanation and video. Keep creating.

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks and I really appreciate the encouragement to keep creating!

[@ageaviation]

Is this just the raw camera and raw footage? Btw sick spottings.

[@OneLensTwo]

Hello and thanks for the feedback! It was pretty dark and cloudy that day, so I think I made some adjustments to the video in post-production. Brightness and sharpness I think.

[@ageaviation]

Thanks!@@OneLensTwo

[@jadeblack7979]

you are outstanding please continue your superbness vids :

[@OneLensTwo]

Thank you, jade black. I will try my best!

[@natioaviationIDN]

Amazing... Excuse me, want to get information about Nikon P1000, 1. Its original video or already edit? 2. Compare to Sony RX10 Which one is better for plane spotting? Thank you for our advice

[@OneLensTwo]

I think I lightened the video a little in post as it was a cloudy day and I also tend to stabilize video clips in post. As for which camera is better... other than focal length, that's a whole other video of pros and cons :)

[@natioaviationIDN]

@@OneLensTwo Thank You for advance.. try to get this camera

[@sfoaviation]

Bud how long does battery last filming 4k with this camera?

[@OneLensTwo]

l have not measured how long I can record on a single battery, but it seems to be as long as other cameras that I have used. But it really depends on how much zooming you do. Lots of zooming through the huge 25mm to 3000mm focal length range will eat up batteries fast.

[@sfoaviation]

@@OneLensTwo thats good to know thanks bud

[@OneLensTwo]

BTW, I found the video recording time in the operating manual. It's 1 hour and 20 minutes when using the battery that comes with the camera. But I expect that zooming a lot will cut that down.

[@sfoaviation]

@@OneLensTwo nice find bud thanks for the info. I'm always reluctant to use the rx for filming due to battery life

[@MuhammadAatifGhafoor]

Nice and informative video. Do you have some still photography of the planes from a distance zoomed through the same camera. I am looking for a camera for plane spotting. Thanks

[@OneLensTwo]

Thanks, Aatif G.! I checked my pictures from that day and unfortunately I didn't find anything. I post lots of pictures in the articles that I write on my website, but it looks like I was shooting mostly video that day.

[@MuhammadAatifGhafoor]

@@OneLensTwo not particularly that day but anytime, I just want to see the still photography results of this camera. Also can I ask for your website URL? Thanks

[@OneLensTwo]

My website is 1lens2.com. You can click on some of the pictures in the articles to see a full size view. There are some video captures, but I tend to call those out.

[@FoxPayne]

Dragon do the JOB 😉😁

[@stonesymmetry]

There’s a chance that I know the pilot of the Kalitta air freight 747 at 2:55 as it’s a fairly small company with only a few 747’s

[@OneLensTwo]

Oh wow, that's cool! I do like spotting those Kalitta Air 747s.
