I went spotting at the Long Stay today. Largely thanks to my new camcorder I think this is the best planespotting video I've done so far:

Yes, it is indeed.

What a great video Hassaan!

As well as the great images, your new camcorder records the sounds excellently as well (c'mon, who doesn't love a bit of NOISE when watching aircraft?). The best example being the Thomson 757 taking off (Oh, that RR "buzz"!).
Please keep recording and keep posting.

Great stuff Hassaan. What type of camcorder is it please and are all the shots handheld?

Thanks! It's a Sony Handicam CX450. All the shots are handheld but I have actually bought a stabilizer for the camera - it's one with a gimbal and one that you can adjust the weight of, but I haven't used it yet. For overhead shots it might be tricky but I do intend to give it a try at some point.

It wasnt me mate, found it on youtube, but it is the Sheldon Country Park. Great video though.

I had to take advantage of the brilliant weather today, so I went out to do some more spotting. Hope you like it!

I've just found time to watch this video in HD.
I'm seriously impressed - what a great video, Hassaan!
The images are 'pin sharp' (when the heat haze doesn't interfere) and (as I commented on your previous video), the sound is excellent.
Great to hear the little kids in the background - tomorrow's aviation/BHX enthusiasts?
Hope you had a great day and I'll certainly be looking forward to your next video.
