This man needs more recognition... I've been watching this channel for around a year now and the quality of the videos is on point, they keep me engaged until the very end. They've also helped me to get into planespotting myself! I have no idea how he doesn't have at least 1m subs, as the quality of these is something I'd expect from someone much more well-known. Keep it up!
Awesome video! I use a Lumix GX-8 and an Olympus 70-300mm lens! I love this hobby and I’m so glad that someone with as much experience as you is inspiring more people!
Production quality always 100%!! Even as a routine planespotter, I found the video quite refreshing and a good review of the essentials! Well done Alvin!!
Great video but you forgot the MFT System cameras like Panasonic lumix and om systems/Olympus cameras. I use Olympus OM-D EM1MKII with mzuiko ed 100-400mm f5-6.3 IS and the Olympus OM-D EM10MKII with mzuiko ed 14-150mm f/4-5.6 mkII for plane spotting. Also in my bagpack a spotting scope, aviation radio scanner, safety vest, ear protection in form of ear defenders/custom made earplugs, lens brush and rocket blower, micro fiber towel and a silicagel bag ment for cars to keep moisture at low level in the bagpack. Ofcourse taking food and drinks
Wow this video really made me well prepared for my first plane spotting. I can’t believe that this guy is not famous… Hope you’re doing well man and keep making awesome plane spotting videos because me along with you’re other viewers really love and appreciate it.👍👏
A radio is also useful. You can listen to the tower's conversations legally but you cannot talk to them. You can get info on the incoming planes and the planes that are going to take off. A radio such as the UV-5R is cheap and has a good sound quality for listening. By the way, talking on a radio has its consequences, you need a license unless you are talking on a license free frequency such as 446 for the UK. This is why you cannot talk to the tower because you do not have a license for that frequency.
Very good Basics of Planespotting Fundamentals!! 👍 Obviously but hidden in these 'things you need' is 💲💲💲💲💲 and plenty of it. In general, photography is not cheap, even though and as you mentioned, one can still start with just their cellphone and free editing programs on your computer or operating system. This assumes your goal is to produce pictures / video equivalent to the 'onemoreweektogo' channel. 😁 However, sometimes its just plain 'Luck' that's needed. You just happen to be in the right place at the right time to capture that Iconic image or video clip. Which means you need to be out there ready to snap the shutter or hit that record button when the time comes. Glad to see the Intro back. Nice video. Cheers 🥂
Thank you! Unfortunately as with many things in life, some initial investment is required. However, I do think it's one of the better things you can throw your money at! You can also produce some very high quality content with relatively cheaper equipment. Much of my gear have been upgraded slowly over time! I also agree that a lot of photography is right time right place - I've certainly had a few of those moments myself! Glad you enjoyed the return of the intro :) I'll be keeping it moving forward.
Brilliant video buddy, thank you! I’ve been a spotter most of my life but never really put it into practice until recently, I only use an iPhone for my videos but I’ve been looking into Camera’s, Lenses etc for the last week or two… this was highly informative for me🙌🏼
Hello, My name is Taher Amgad. I am new in plane spotting. Since you have a lot of experience in plane spotting, Can you tell me the right gear to use and the apps please? And also how do you get paid in plane spotting? Is it from a company that you work in? Thank you and have a nice day (waiting for response)
Awesome Video!!! just one thing, FR24 can track military, click filters, then click airline, then type RCH and enter and it will show all Air force planes currently on radar
Plane spotting is super fun, I must say it is important to look for more than one spotting location. Every major airport has that spot that’s a hidden gem nobody knows about
Great video! As I’ve commented before, the only thing I’m missing is a good lens for plane spotting, since I usually just do portrait photography, but lenses are always so expensive!
No hahaha this was great! I just meant that I really like seeing you do more stuff focused around spotting in general since you are one of the few creators who actually puts out dedicated spotting content. This video was awesome and was exactly what I wanted- keep up the good work 😎
Hi What microphone do you recommend for videography of planes? Also what setting for that? I mean gram rate; shutter speed , etc? Wish you an enjoyable plane spotting
Excellent video! I just wanted to mention 2 things: 1. Flightradar24 does track some military aircraft. Not always but you can spot some here in the US. 2. I think I did not heard you recommending shooting in .raw format.
Thanks! Good to know about FlightRadar. I personally don't do much military spotting so I wasn't aware. I didn't mention RAW as I wasn't 100% sure all beginner cameras support it, but yes if your camera can shoot raw, definitely shoot raw!
Usually I have one on, also helps with accidental damage to the front of the lens. But sometimes if you’re going for those artsy shots where you want some lens flare, it could be beneficial not to have one.
My goto in the past with Canon was 1Dx + 70-200 f2.8 + 1.4x converter. Oh, so nostalgic memories your channel revealed today. Thanks :) With LiveATC and listening radio frequency is it legal in all the countries you traveled for spotting? P.S. With the backpack I was asking in another video - I got the answer here :)
@@onemoreweektogo I checked an app you mentioned in the video. And in the description developers mentioned a list of countries where this is prohibited by law. So interesting:) hard to understand them here in YVR, also was checking SIN but a I will figure it out. Thank you!
I have a Canon 6D and a 70-300mm IS f/4-5.6. I’d like to get a better lens, I was thinking about a 70-200mm F/2.8L IS III USM. Do you think it’s a good choice?
Very informative thanks Just starting out here never really cared to much about planes but my son obsession got us down at YVR every weekend so thinking about getting some gear to do it right I thinking the T7 with 18-55 & 75-300mm combo Thought ?
What do you think a good camera for aviation photography and videography is for my aviation TH-cam channel I want a camera that I can use for photography and videography so I can take thumbnail photos and good quality videos.
Hi! I’m 14 and I really want to get into plane spotting. My budget is lower than normal, since all of the money I have is from christmas/bdays. I feel like all the good cameras are overpriced (from my perspective). My budget is around $300-$400, and since you know more about photography and stuff, what’s a good starting camera that has good quality?
hey i was thinking about getting a 400mm prime lens from canon to go with my 7d mk 2 for aviation photography but im having second thoughts do you think i should get a zoom or a prime for airshows?
I personally think zooms are more versatile and also easier to carry around. The 400 prime is an awesome lens but it is a bit limiting in terms of the inability to zoom. I think having a zoom would allow you to get more variation of shots. Unless you can afford to get both a zoom and a prime, haha.
Its me @nico.jets 😂 like is dropped VERY VERY GOOD VIDEO alvin, i will watch it again when i've nothing to do but i saw a bit of the video and i need to say VERY GOOD 🔥🔥🔥
I've added everything to my basket and it's come to a total of £8,356 GBP. Shouldn't take me too long to save up the rest. Thanks so much for this video. Also, what is the bag you used I couldn't quite catch the name of it. SUB earned btw 👍🏻
Like the video, thumb up. But: 1:50, what are the pros of DSLR over MILC? Frankly, if you are being a new camera today, I cannot imagine that you would go with DSLR (maybe except the price, but in general everything that is older and worst is cheaper)
Is still Gear still good if you don’t spot near an airport. Because I spot in my backyard where there’s lots of planes. Will the gear be perfect? Would you recommend it?
So you spot the aircraft cruising high above? You’ll probably need the big lenses like 600mm in that case, or the hybrid cameras with high optical zooms
Thank you very much for the video and it is super helpful. I need a suggestion from you. I have Nikon D750 and 200-500 mm heavy lens. When i roll the camera along with the plane, i get sweep action but not the smooth movement. How do i avoid this issue? I have pretty good heavy duty tripod, but may be due to the movement with my hands, i get shaky videos and i feel so upset when i see them on the big screen.
So, I am 14 and I am really interested in plane spotting. I love aviation and photography and thought this would make a great hobby. Because I am probably younger than the average plane spotter, with a lower budget, I was wondering, what do you think would be the best camera for me? I have been looking at the Lumix DMC-FZ300, do you think this would be a good camera for a beginner on a budget? I really want a Sony RX 10 IV but I think it costs to much and it is too advanced for a young beginner like me. Suggestions? Thanks!
Hey Ryan! I think that's a perfect starter camera! It's a bridge camera so it's got a lot of built in zoom, equivalent to a range of 25mm-600mm. That's perfectly suited for plane-spotting. For the price, it is a very capable camera. That way you don't also need to spend on different lenses and have everything in one package! Go for it!
Hey, sorry for bothering you, I am curious why the Lumix DMC-FZ300 is more expensive than the Lumix DMC-FZ80 even though the FZ80 has a Longer zoom and what seems to be similar image quality to the FZ300. Thoughts?
Agree. I still have it. It was my very first MILS camera. After that I was using Sony's FF bodies but still A6000 was and still is very capable camera.
Fence is always annoying no matter the camera/lens, but a few things you can consider to improve that experience: - Use a lens with a small diameter (usually crop lenses are better for this) so they fit within the fence holes. - put your lens as close as possible against the fence while shooting. - use the widest aperture (lowest f-stop number). This will help blur the fence vignette a bit and make it easier to work with in post.
I got A7 Mk1 with 50 f1.8 and in the future I will get 16-35gm, 200-600g. Which one should I get 70-200f4 or 70-200f2.8 because I want to travel, sport, plane spotting?
im thinking about getting the canon eos m50, with a 55-200mm lens, will this be ok for upclsoe spotting, like spotting at spottijg areas at the actual airport?
No, you should transfer it directly to a computer or hard drive. The images transferred via Wifi to the phone are most likely compressed and you won’t get the full quality of the image.
I believe that’s a bridge camera with built in zoom? As long as it has some kind of optical zoom then I think it’s great to start off with since you don’t have to keep changing lenses.
This man needs more recognition... I've been watching this channel for around a year now and the quality of the videos is on point, they keep me engaged until the very end.

I have the E-M1 Mk III and the 40-150mm f/2.8 zoom and the 1.4x and 2.0x extenders. The latter gives me the FOV of a full frame at 160-600mm f/5.6.
FINALLY! Brilliant video my dude, well worth the wait
Thanks Robert! Hoping to get some new spotters into the fun hobby!
Wow this video really made me well prepared for my first plane spotting. I can’t believe that this guy is not famous… Hope you’re doing well man and keep making awesome plane spotting videos because me along with you’re other viewers really love and appreciate it.👍👏
I just got a Sony A7RIV with 200-600mm and 400mm 2.8!
I’m also getting a a6600 next month!!!
That’s some serious gear! Congrats on that!
You should add in a dry box too. We definitely need it! xD
Ah for humid environments, that could be useful!

Great video! As I’ve commented before, the only thing I’m missing is a good lens for plane spotting, since I usually just do portrait photography, but lenses are always so expensive!
They’re certainly an investment, but imo one of the best investments you can make! Lenses retain their value quite well.
Do you have a video on what are optimal settings for video mode? For the A7SIII
More plane spotting content please 😃
This one was more focused on the information, but hopefully the next video will be more planespotting focused!
No hahaha this was great! I just meant that I really like seeing you do more stuff focused around spotting in general since you are one of the few creators who actually puts out dedicated spotting content. This video was awesome and was exactly what I wanted- keep up the good work 😎
Glad to see the intro song back in your videos! Really informative video Alvin!
Back by popular request! Hahah thanks Andy! 🙏🏻
Do you have a tip for video planespotting to avoid all the shaking on the longer focal lengths? The IS of camera and lens is not enough.

Do you recommend using a lens hood for aviation photography, especially for sunny days?

Is a nikon d3300 good for plane spoting.If no can you please suggest a better one at the same price?Thx
I want to have an average priced camera for planespotting. Would Canon 2000d be a good camera for planespotting?
2000D is pretty good but 200D is better because it shoots faster.
Thanks for this Im getting a Canon 100D!

Nice video! I just Wanna Buy a nikon P1000 bcs isnt that expensive, i dont need to buy a lens, is compact and the zoom is amazing, 125X.
What about Nikon p1000 is that good enough to capture aircraft at night? Thanks
What zoom do dslr cameras have?
Depends on the lens, anywhere between 16-600! (Or more with extenders)
Should you recommended the FZ82?
I actually have that oneworld Cathay pacific model
Awesome! One of my favourite set of models.
Spot on!
Perhaps another segment about planespotting videography???
I’ll try! I wouldn’t claim to be nearly as fluent in planespotting videography as my photography, but perhaps!
Such a wonderful tutorial! Subbed!
Thank you!
Veyr helpful, THX!!!!
Going to plane-spot next week
Incredible video Alvin, so informative and well put together as always Alvin!
Thanks Yusuf!!
Like the video, thumb up.
But: 1:50, what are the pros of DSLR over MILC?
Frankly, if you are being a new camera today, I cannot imagine that you would go with DSLR (maybe except the price, but in general everything that is older and worst is cheaper)
Yess love these videos
Thanks Max! Hoping to get out a few more soon. 🙏🏻

Hey Ryan! I think that's a perfect starter camera! It's a bridge camera so it's got a lot of built in zoom, equivalent to a range of 25mm-600mm. That's perfectly suited for plane-spotting. For the price, it is a very capable camera. That way you don't also need to spend on different lenses and have everything in one package! Go for it!

thanks, is it worth taking a Canon 70-300mm IS usm lens to start spotting? or Tamron 70-300mm Di VC usd? my camera aps-c (crop)
Would a nikon D5100 18-55mm lens camera be good for plane spotting?
I want to avoid bringing a ladder but are there cameras and/or lenses shoot through fence like it's not there?
Fence is always annoying no matter the camera/lens, but a few things you can consider to improve that experience:
- Use a lens with a small diameter (usually crop lenses are better for this) so they fit within the fence holes.
- put your lens as close as possible against the fence while shooting.
- use the widest aperture (lowest f-stop number). This will help blur the fence vignette a bit and make it easier to work with in post.

Thank you Pavel!
I got A7 Mk1 with 50 f1.8 and in the future I will get 16-35gm, 200-600g. Which one should I get 70-200f4 or 70-200f2.8 because I want to travel, sport, plane spotting?
If you can afford it, definitely get the f2.8 70-200. It’ll give you the ability to take more low light photography.
im thinking about getting the canon eos m50, with a 55-200mm lens, will this be ok for upclsoe spotting, like spotting at spottijg areas at the actual airport?
Yup, that sounds like a perfect lens for that
Is the a6000 a good choice for spotting?
Flightradar24 does track military aircraft. It wont track destination
Few of them.
Just came over your channel. Love it! What made you stop uploading the videos.
Thanks! I'm just taking a break, but I'll be back with some more videos soon. Will definitely have more closer to the end of this year.
Hi! What SD card do you recommend for a Sony A7III if I'mexpectingto spend the whole day at the airport? And how many batteries?
Since the a7iii has a UHS-II compatible slot, I’d recommend a UHS-II card perhaps with 128gb. 2 batteries at least
I have a i phone x and not a camera, could i buy a telephoto lense to planespot?
Once you have saved pictures to your phone via the cameras Wi-Fi is it safe to clear your sd card ready for your next session?
No, you should transfer it directly to a computer or hard drive. The images transferred via Wifi to the phone are most likely compressed and you won’t get the full quality of the image.
@@onemoreweektogo ok can I then get them from my computer to my phone?
Yeah you could use like google drive or some cloud storage, or airdrop if you have a mac and iPhone
@@onemoreweektogo thx
Is the Nikon p1000 good?
Hi mate from Brisbane Australia! What tripod to you like to use for outdoors photo/video? In your video at 06:04 is that the Manfrotto 502? Subscribed
Yes, it is the 502 fluid head and 546b tripod legs!
I know i am a little bit late but what do you think about the sony a6400 for planespotting?
I think that's a fine entry level camera to start off with!
@@onemoreweektogo thank you very much
Which tripod are you using ?
Do you use any filters on your lenses?? I’m getting into plane spotting and photography
Just a UV filter to protect it!
Can I use a digital camera?
Yes, definitely! Works perfect for a starter camera!

I believe that’s a bridge camera with built in zoom? As long as it has some kind of optical zoom then I think it’s great to start off with since you don’t have to keep changing lenses.
Is a 70 200 lens good enough? I have a nikon one?
It should be sufficient for some shots where you’re closer to the plane, but some farther shots you may struggle
