What's the Best Lens for Spotting at LHR with Overcast Skies?

Started by BarbaraPilot22 3 weeks ago 1 replies 41 views
Hey everyone! I'm planning a trip to London soon and can't wait to do some plane spotting at Heathrow (LHR). I've heard the weather can be pretty unpredictable, often cloudy or overcast. I usually shoot with a Canon 70-200mm, but I'm wondering if I should consider a different lens for those typical London skies.

Has anyone had good results with a different focal length or brand in similar conditions? I'm thinking maybe something like a 100-400mm could give me more flexibility, but I'm not sure if it's overkill. Also, any tips on settings for dealing with the diffused light on cloudy days would be awesome. Appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!
