  6. My Kenko .5 has been a great lens. I did get the Pro version, I think it was about $45 3 years ago. Im looking at widening my angle of view now that I'm "inside" many more formations rather than outside. With my .5 its tough to get more then 2 in the shot on a tight 4 way base. I'll not get rid of my .5 though, its nice for big track dive other such stuff. just my .02
  7. There have some issues at our DZ as of late. Our main landing area can have two landing directions REGARDLESS of wind direction. hangar on the left or right. It is the advanced landing area with a swoop lane. We have plenty of other areas for landing if a pilot wishes to land in to the wind or has less experience. I personally think this is an effective way to separate some of the slower traffic from the faster traffic. Does that mean the the swoopers can do whatever they want? NO. I regularly keep my head on a swivel for other pilots and traffic. I have regularly had to abort a planned 270 for some other type turn or no turn at all. Have I made some mistakes? Yea, but I talk with those involved and try my best to learn from it. IMHO the problem is not the young or old, advanced or novice, or even swoopers and striaght in pilots. Its EVERYONE. At any particular DZ there should be a set of rules for traffic patters, holding areas, main and alternative langing areas. And EVERYONE should follow them, no matter what their opinion about them. Because as soon as one person does something different, then another thinks its ok also, and before you know it, you've got a canopy collision. I ask that pilots of larger canopies respect the guys on small canopies. conversely the guys on large canopies deserve the same amout of respect from the small canopy pilots. Visitors to the DZ should be briefed on that DZs practices, and be expected to adhere to the same rules the local live by. We have a moderate sized DZ with advanced pilots on almost every load mixed with large accuracy guys. We know what each others canopies look like. Even if we didnt, if were paying attention to our surroundings, one can pick out the small and fast and the large and slow. Respect each other and the rules for your DZ everything should be fine.
